Surely a normal HGV tow truck and jack would be enough?

Imagine being the tow truck driver who got that job.
One minute you're on a Scania on the Irish M50, next it's the most important car in the world

I love the way that it's designed to survive bombs and machine guns but a car park exit defeats it

Just get a 4X4 and pull it backwards, it'll come off... snatch recovery anyone??

The doors are absurd. They must weigh more than my MR2!

I'm not trying to recommend it - I think their's has had a snag or two.

May not have any french electronics or a BSI, but condensing boilers can be fickle things. (My bro calls them temporary boilers).

Right err, ive had a nosey round Prices for them Diesel Boilers are out of this world
anyideas where icouid get one for around a grand mate doesnt have to have a lambo badge

according to wikipedia they wheigh more than the door on a boeing 747.
one other option would to have floored it over the ramp like one of them old american car chases and have the sparks come out as it lands, then a bit of overtsteer, a lot of tyre smoke a v8 roaring and away off into the sunset. But no it was clonk and it all stopped.

It probably only has about 250 bhp from an 8.2 litre supercharged V8.. Yank car after all

It's a big diesel is it not?
Prob a truck engine

there was talk about diesel but i think this one is still a petrol.
The americans after all are not a fan of diesel.

6.5 litre diesel engine according to this informative graphic.

Gets 8mpg.

It's built on some GMC Topline truck chassis and has custom Cadillac bodywork

The NI assembly Skodas are bulletproof are they not? Usually with a couple of hefty chauffeurs.

Or do you mean taxis? The rear passenger operated partition would be good at not having to make smalltalk when you have the fear.

Got me thinking this, what an easy way to strand the most powerfull man on earth. You just need some sort of ramp like on this vid, and he's imobile. Not good security me thinks.

but the superbs look sh!t, i mind it being on the news about the politicians not liking them and some dealer come on with some bullpoop about them being "superb" naming all the equipment they had. But in a superb its not exactly a luxo barge its well equipped but not tastefully just thrown in.

What sort of car does the PM have here?

The best politicians car has to be berlusconis car a quatroporte, all the rest of the cars waft up silently but he arrives in a cloud of tyre smoke with a really good v8 soundtrack.

I think they got a good deal on a fleet of them, and they were the closest thing to a proper cheap big car now that Vauxhall wont replace the Omega. I think the Chrysler 300s would have looked cooler but not sure what price they are compared to Skodas.

Jacques Chirac I think had a C6 as a presidential car.

Any big Italian saloon is going to be cool though too. I remember seeing unmarked police black Lancia Thesises in Rome and although they're a pig ugly car, they looked extremely cool.

Think uk.gov use Jags. Treacherous nuLabour would rather use BMWs than Rover 75s back in the day.
