Title: Armoured Omega...£25,000
Post by: joshwyatt on 22 February 2009, 18:19:12

Just seen this, click the 'for sale' tab on the bottom left and then in the bottom right you'll see a 2.2 DTI armoured saloon.
I bet it'd struggle with all the added weight, need a 2.6 or 3.2 V6

£28,750 for a car that might do 20mpg downhill and 0-60 in a minute.

Er, no thanks.

Not even got a kevlar floor pan  :-/

Need a car that can get away from a "situation". Should have used an mv6 and break the petrol costs ::)

2.2dti is hardly a great platform to build an armoured car from, a hitman riding on a rickshaw could easily keep up with it..

The Mundaineo is even worse 2.0 diesel zetec! 0-60 would be faster in my 55 year old Morris Minor ;D
