The boys from Top Gear borrow an "Urban Assault Vehicle" and see if it is worthy of the title.

A friend showed me this a few weeks ago. Already worked up something for SR4, too, just in case his character wants to try for one.

Somewhere in the US some Sherrifs department is applying for a DHS grant. Well actually i think bearcat gets all those grants so we're sort of safe.

Hm, nice car... how is the mileage? *g*

Also: how did they get permission to do stunts in public streets... and to destroy property of McDonalds? I guess they are REALLY lax in South Africa? Here you would NEVER have gotten permission to do any of that. Public safety and all.

But man, looked like fun, crashing through walls and all. Hm... 300.000 pounds he said... eh. so about 600x what my car is worth.

A shame you won't get a permit for that in Germany... we have some of the strictest firearms and car safety rules in the world...

The artwork of the Tata Hotspur in Arsenal kinda reminds me of it, and the stats fit. I'm gonna purchse one for my rigger lol.

Nah, Hotspur's a racing truck. An awesome off-road armored racing truck, but still a little too quick and nimble.

I'd say stuff like the Marauder falls soundly in the _____Master range (Roadmaster, Citymaster, or a swanky new off-road variant).

Ok, now I have a reason to save up 300k pounds
Drivers of Recife, beware...
