The might look like bit of a joke, but under that gaudy exterior is a military-grade chassis coated in massive amounts of armor. This is a thing you most definitely want when you venture out into the barren hellscape of a world gone mad. Or Jersey.

Remember the ? Have a look, but to cut it short, there was a company in Kent which converted original Range Rovers to six-wheel drive with as much armoring as their customer's lifestyle or political situation required. This is the redux.
