You’re such a mover and shaker that you put Gordon Gekko to shame.  You dash around the world with a beefy security detail shadowing your every move but you’re one weakness is in the car.

Alas, Bentley has arrived on the scene to ensure your a@@ is covered when the action goes down and your arch nemesis pulls out his AK-47.   That’s right, for a mere investment of $500,000, you can pick up a bulletproof Bentley Continental Flying Spur from Germany courtesy of global luxury marketplace JamesList.

Sporting military grade B6-level protection, this car will keep you as safe as a baby in mama’s arms as you dash through Baghdad or Beirut.

From an outside appearance, the car looks like a standard Bentley and the modifications have little effect on the 552-hp engine’s performance but the changes are there:

  • Ballistic steel in the doors, pillars and sides of the vehicle
  • Bulletproof glass
  • Run flat tires
  • Explosion proof gas tank
  • Kevlar flooring

Other optional features include:

  • Self-contained oxygen supply system in case of poison gas attack
  • Exploding hinge bolts that blast open the doors should a race for the border exit is needed.
