Slightly random, but very impressive. A conversion of a Russian BRDM (Combat Reconnaissance/Patrol Vehicle) armored car into a pimpin’ off road luxury transport. Fitted with an intense sound system, GPS Navigation, TVs, DVD players and an amazing custom leather interior conversion, its like climbing into a limo. There is some disagreement as to whether this baby can swim (amphibious vehicle), but it is equipped with a periscope and most likely night vision as well so you can anonymously stare at your admirers. via englishrussia.com, pics from zr.ru
