New Toyota Land Cruiser 200 Series 2020 becomes bulletproof limo for safe off-road luxury!

Your eyes do not deceive you… this is a LandCruiser 200 Series bulletproof limousine.

Love your Toyota LandCruiser 200 Series but wish its body was tougher and wheelbase a little bit longer? Belgian coachbuilder Carat Duchatelet now has the solution for your problem.

Indeed, the company will convert your off-roader into a bulletproof limousine that will ensure going off the beaten track will be safer and more luxurious than before.

Two versions of the LandCruiser 200 Series bulletproof limo are available, with one having a 300mm wheelbase extension, while the other goes 200mm further by adding a central panel instead of longer rear doors.

Either way, these Toyota off-roaders are “equipped with a high level of ballistic protection … (and) will drive you in any circumstances and on any terrain while being seated in a space giving the feeling of total wellbeing”, according to Cara Duchatelet’s website.

Inside, the LandCruiser 200 Series bulletproof limo’s second row is a lesson in opulence, with several options available, including a partition with two captain’s chairs and tray tables. And, of course, leather upholstery and wood trim are used liberally throughout.

“The extended Toyota LandCruiser is the 4x4 offering an amazing off-road driving experience. An essential vehicle for great comfort in the most hostile places,” the coachbuilder added.

“With its specifically engineered Carat Duchatelet suspension and brakes, its legendary reliability does not need to be any more proven.”

Justin’s dad chose to miss his birth because he wanted to watch Peter Brock hopefully win Bathurst, so it figures Justin grew up to have a car obsession, too – and don’t worry, his dad did turn up in time after some stern words from his mum. That said, despite loving cars and writing, Justin chose to pursue career paths that didn’t lend themselves to automotive journalism, before eventually ending up working as a computer technician. But that car itch just couldn’t be scratched by his chipped Volkswagen Golf R (Mk7), so he finally decided to give into the inevitable and study a Master of Journalism at the same time. And even with the long odds, Justin was lucky enough to land a full-time job as a motoring journalist soon after graduating and the rest, as they say, is history. These days, Justin happily finds himself working at CarsGuide during the biggest period of change yet for the automotive industry, which is perhaps the most exciting part of all. In case you’re wondering, Justin begrudgingly sold the Golf R (sans chip) and still has plans to buy his dream car, an E46 BMW M3 coupe (manual, of course), but he is in desperate need of a second car space – or maybe a third.
