Eagle 1660 Report post Posted June 7, 2016 AOS trying to break the windows with plastic rifle stocks made me laugh, you'd struggle to break a std window let along a double glazed (bullet proof) one 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Driftit 2069 Report post Posted June 7, 2016 Seen a few of them in East DC and West Phily. Always with the giant chromes and 100% black out windows. BMW owners you don't want to approach haha. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E30 325i Rag-Top 2956 Report post Posted June 8, 2016 They should have got a "proper" E38 and gone all out for the Protection version, the police would have had trouble stopping all 3.5 tonnes of one of those. There is a BIG difference between the double glazed windows (which are 1/2 inch thick and not bullet proof) and the bullet proof windows (which are THREE inches thick and in special door surrounds with protective coatings on the inside, which not surprisingly are), then there are the bullet proof tyres, steel plated armour, etc, etc. NOTE: This is not condoning criminal activity, merely pointing out they bought the wrong 7 Series for the job. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eagle 1660 Report post Posted June 8, 2016 Reminds me of some idiot selling trying to sell his S600 not long ago, he just refused to believe his windows weren't bullet proof despite someones best efforts. Someone people are just too ignorant for their own good. Maybe he would of got the protection model if he could find one. Ive never seen one for sale in NZ.

E30 325i Rag-Top 2956 Report post Posted June 9, 2016 There are a few in NZ, but only a very few. And thinking about it, they might not be for sale to the General Public... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KwS 2421 Report post Posted June 9, 2016 We regularly have an older E class in at work from an Embassy that is a protection version. Only the drivers window rolls down, and only half way. All the others are fixed. The glass is a good couple of inches thick and everything weighs a ton. Doors feel like they are made of concrete. It has weird things like a PA system, fire suppression system, and run flats. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I asked that guy if I could test the bullet proof windows before purchase, and he said I could. Sort of wish I went and did it. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eagle 1660 Report post Posted June 9, 2016 Haha yeah i saw that was you. Maybe he tested them himself and realized they weren't, hence why he never re-listed it. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
