It might be the most secure car in the world...
 

.....but even the 'Beast' can't cope with a little ramp:

[rofl]

I just saw the video and "little ramp" my ass. Who designs an entrance to have such a large hump?

Fair point, not the best design and yes 'little' ramp is stretching the point a bit.

Safe to say there is going to be more modification to the "Beast" to ensure it doesn't get stuck like this again.

It's not even a hump. It's just a change in the angle of the road. The 7-series or whatever it was only just looked like it cleared it as well.

Go Go gadget wheels[thumbup]

That noise *clank* hahahaha [rofl][thumbup]

pfft its all about this anyways. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Nug5FZgxuk

so not a single soul here even read the first line in the article, not even the op himself

But a Secret Service spokesman later said "it was a spare limo". I call BS. But seriously though, when they opened the doors the windows were like 3 inches thick, WTF, this thing is like bomb proof. I wonder if it's crash proof, if so I want one.

Are they gonna shoot that ramp away with the minigun ?

If they have to. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/tongue1.gif We have wasted more money on activities much more frivolous.

That BMW wasn't a stretch limo. The wheel base wasn't designed to go over such a hump.

Clearly Ireland is a dangerous place, all you wannabe Irish be warned.

Lol, imagine that thing driving around some of the Council estates here in the UK, it wouldn't get far with all the traffic calming stuff, like speed bumps etc.. [rofl]

Oh and i thought the beginning of his speech was very funny, a few other bits too:

"My Lord Chancellor, Mr Speaker, Mr Prime Minister, my Lords, and Members of the House of Commons:

"I have known few greater honours than the opportunity to address the Mother of Parliaments at Westminster Hall. I am told the last three speakers here have been the Pope, Her Majesty the Queen, and Nelson Mandela, which is either a very high bar or the beginning of a very funny joke" Of course, all relationships have their ups and downs. Admittedly, ours got off on the wrong foot with a small scrape about tea and taxes. "There may have also been some hurt feelings when the White House was set on fire during the War of 1812. But fortunately, it's been smooth sailing ever since! [rofl]
