TEST: Tired of Bilka bumps? So buy your own tank!

Daimler Ferret Scout Car You have to be a little war-obsessed to buy a tank with a machine gun in the turret. But the armored corps certainly has its advantages – also for civilians. Regardless of whether the machine gun is a dummy, it has a respect-inspiring effect in traffic. The huge puncture-free wheels ensure that you never need to worry about curbs or fences. At Bilka's car park, you can park with complete peace of mind. The children in the neighboring car can just smash the doors in the bonnet. It will always be the other car that gets damaged. The Daimler Ferret Scout Car is a nifty little city car that cleverly maintains a cruising speed of 70 km/h, and it fits into ordinary parking spaces. And then it is armored. Admittedly, it only runs between one and two km per litre, the steering pulls the acid out in the upper arms, and there is only room for two people and very little luggage in addition to six row grenade launchers.
