Externally, there is little to differentiate the armoured GTI from a standard model.
On same day that SVI Engineering introduced its bulletproof take on the Nissan Patrol, rival armoured vehicle manufacturer, Armormax, has introduced it’s latest offering based on the Volkswagen Golf 8 GTI.A project that comes on the back of the firm’s introduction of an armoured version of the preceding Golf 7.5 in 2018, the B4 level protected GTI wasn’t viewed as much of a challenge despite being new from the 7.5.
“There was never a question that we would develop the world’s first armouring package for the new model, knowing that there would be a high demand.”Tipping the scales at “less than 180 kg”, the modifications to the GTI includes replacing the standard glass with ballistics glass, constructing the tailgate, doors, side panels, roof pillars and even the rear seats out of lightweight synthetic armour and fitting a PPT intercom system.
