Buying & selling bulletproof vehicles VR4–VR10

We trade exclusively in vehicles armored at the factory: Mercedes-Benz Guard (our specialty — e.g. S-Class Guard, S 680 Guard 4MATIC), BMW Protection and Audi Security (e.g. A8 L Security). Purchase, sale and trade-in — discreet and on request.

VPAM protection levels VR4 to VR10

The ballistic resistance of vehicle armor is certified to the VPAM guideline in protection levels VR4 to VR10. For civilian executive protection, levels VR7 to VR10 are the most relevant — VR10 is the highest level available in a civilian vehicle. We advise you brand-neutrally on the right protection level for your risk profile.
