You can't get shot in the middle of Monaco, that's why they don't need so many armored mercs and escorts
But I have to admit that some of them are really impressive, the yellow alpina, police Brabus S, pearl white murci ... :shock: Nice find

I was reading Car magazine, and it seems that the rich buy these lights, and turn them on, and the heavy traffic just parts for them. Its a sort of licence to speed.

The lights cost only $20, but only the rich seem to use them. They drive through in their S600s etc.. tailed by a gaggle of bodyguards in a following car.

I'll see if i can find a scan of the article, or even take pics of my wn copy for you guys

HAHA Are you guys surprised?

I expected to see nothing less then Maybachs. Probably one of the most corrupt large cities in the world. Capital of Russia...All of Russias money is in Moscow.

Cops with BMWs and Porsches? No shit, they make all their money on narcotics trafficing. You know those arent Police Dept owned cars right? It's just that the officers can get away with more, and get special plates if they allow their car to be painted in the police paint job. They are all actually privetly owned. Been there seen it, know all about it.

In Ukraine cops made their money on popy, drove Mercs and wore Armani suits...Now how can you do that on your average cop salery...

It's not poor, its just that it's cops, criminals and politicians that have all of the countries money.

Moscow is 2nd the most expansive city of the world arter Tokyo. At least it was few years ago 8)

Thats a unbeliavable view - Orange Murcie surrounded by old dirty Lada's

Also I heard something like - just in Moscow there are more S class Mercs than in all Europe togeather 8)

Not everyone who have Ferrari or Merc is a gangster, there are lots of real milionairs who made money in real business. Not everything is black


Thanx for the link St.Anger

You got that right.

But it seems to be forgiven and forgotten.
