Oh Man!!! If only it wasn't export only....

With very little searching on the 'net you can find lots of these available, both new and used, all over the world. I would bet it is a long shot approach to broker a vehicle order.

I emailed the seller and told him the cruiser in the pictures is obviously not the cruiser in the description. He then sent me this picture saying it is the "actual" vehicle. It 's a solid front axle 105 series--obviously not the TD 100 in his eBay description.

I also emailed him; got a fuzzy response; some of the writing is bad english and grammer, some is excellent; tells me more than one person answering messages.

It is either a scam, or someone trying to start a business as a middleman, on a shoestring ie: from home.

Besides, who's got 135K+ for one of these?

There are some "good" deals on some non-LC's; ie: used arm-red MB or BMW cars with low mileage. That is, if you need that level of protection in your neighborhood.

Lots of Russian "business men" moving vehicles. Someone on the board was saying that at US auctions the used LCs and LXs were all going overseas.

Iraq is the best market for this kind of Modifications trucks

REAL ARMOURED Windows don't go up/down. That pic is not of an ARMOURED LC.. There should be a compartment dividing the rear passengers from the rear storage and no fold-down seats.

X2 on the Japanese versions instead of U.S. Versions.. They are easier to work on internationally and come bare for OPERATIONAL USE

We have 2. GREAT POWER, 5SP Diesel. When I get into my Personal one (U.S. Version) I feel soo light..

Salsa, dont the front windows, at least the driver window, doesnt it go down a few inches so you can pass any identification/documents at checkpoints?

Do these outfitters also upgrade the starter contacts to make them bullet-proof?

Don't taze me, bro!!!!

Checkpoints.. Who needs Checkpoints? Usually the front license plates you carry or an Identification of some sort allow you a free pass. Normally Armoured Vehicles in the AOR are escorted and the Lead Vehicle cleares the way at Checkpoints (Literally).

For the Starter contacts to be protected: the WHOLE Engine Compartment is Enforced with 1/4 Inch Steel sheets to include the dual-battery setup and forget the sunroof.. It's sealed shut and the whole roof is BP too..
