130i M-Sport, also quite cheap in armored flavor.

Well it does work.

Why not an E38 740i?

To DD maybe not, sunday cruiser great idea.

Good god, does literally everything in Brazil has an armored option?
![]() 03/07/2015 at 16:48 |

The SWB one is only a bit bigger than a new Honda Accord.

Yes, Smart cars, small trucks, small hatchbacks. Everything.

Parts are a problem, driving it not as such. Everything here has 150% import tax, I can barely pay for all my new Citroens, I can't imagine what a 60k mile 740i would do to my bank account.

I hate to say it, but the solution is to only have two cars. A daily-driver, and a weekend car.

That's what I'm trying to accomplish (+ a larger car for traveling). One weekend car, one DD, and one larger SUV thing.

Wow. And I can barely afford my $1000 Cutlass!

Practically speaking, wouldn't that be an asset for an armored car? The more you blend in the less likely you are to be targeted.

Exactly.

This is a nice little car, despite the humdrum looks. It looks a bit Bangle.

But you won't be as baller!

It looks a bit bland but compared to the 2010/09 B-Class or Audi A3 it isn't all that bad.

True.

I'm trying to go with the idea of a city car, but no luck so far. I need comfortable.

Volvo? I've always liked their seats.
![]() 03/07/2015 at 17:19 |

Well the C30 is (was) their only small car. But only 2 doors.
![]() 03/07/2015 at 17:25 |

They made a C40 for a while - rented one once. Nice little car.

V40? I also rented one, turbo diesel.
![]() 03/07/2015 at 17:31 |
|
Yeah - V40 - and we don't get that engine here in US America. That car might be the answer.

We don't get diesels here, rented it in Switzerland. I can't afford it haha, at $40k it is a bit too much for me.
![]() 03/07/2015 at 17:35 |

Used one?
![]() 03/07/2015 at 17:37 |

Introduced to the Brazilian market last year, there aren't many used ones, the only ones I could find are around 36k which still is too much for me.

Hmmm ... I want to say I rented one in ... 2011? We had them for a while, then they stopped selling them. Drove it from NYC to DC and back. Recall that it was comfortable on the highway, had a decent bit of grunt, and good brakes. Steering could use more feel though.
