But what type of rounds were being fired, Giannis? You could fire 9mm submachine gun rounds into these cars all day.

The B6/B7 standard means the car is armoured according to European DIN ballistic standards' level six and level seven. However, because it is B6/B7, it is a combination of both. The highest level should, in my opinion, be B7/B7 and there are cars on the market that fit that certification. If you buy a factory armoured car, they are mostly B6/B7.

The price should be about 500,000 Euros including VAT and other charges.
