Well i have been watching Survivors on BBC HD and it got me thinking(as it does when you bored and jacked on Red Bull) what the hell would i do ? Here is the general story for those who have not seen it....

"Set in the present day, the series focuses on a group of ordinary people who survive the aftermath of a devastating viral pandemic – referred to as "European flu" – which kills 90% of the world's population due to it causing Cytokine Storms in the body's immune system.Civilisation comes to a stop: broadcast media goes off the air, and the National Grid shuts down, leaving the country in darkness The series sees the characters struggling against terrible dangers in a world with no society, no police and no law."

So what would you. What would you drive,how would you defend your self from the lawless gangs bound to be roaming,where would you go, what would you do for food in the long term ?

Best show on Tv is Criminal Minds, I am mad about it.

Be 99.99% of the population who die, I suspect. Which leads to the question what would a zombie drive?

I think I would probably get to the coast, steal a boat, and head for somewhere subtropical.

In one of the zombie threads The Trafford Centre was sounded as a possible place to live.

Nabbing some Russian oligarchs luxury yacht sounds good.

First trip would be to Magnet to get some power tools, then to the local gun club to stock up on the goodies, then onto the Range Rover dealership to get a nice 4x4....hmmm, I have scarily given this some thought.biggrin

ok move here


On a good day, this home is a luxurious, contemporary mansion with all the amenities one could ask for. On a bad day, this home can close upon itself, lock into place in minutes, and become a nearly impenetrable fortress. The “Safe House” by KWK Promes was designed with zombies in mind and is perhaps the first of its kind. When closed, the interior of the home is protected by nearly a foot of concrete in all directions, plus a steel shutter and a retractable drawbridge that connects to a second building. The roof will provide ample space for solar panels, rooftop gardens and walkways for scouting the horde beyond. This home was buzzed all over the web after it was completed, and it just so happens to be the perfect home from which to survive the plague of zombies that could be on its way.

drive this


t doesn’t get much more bad-ass than this. The Conquest Knight XV isn’t a vehicle retro-fitted with armor systems, it’s an armored SUV hand-built with military-grade stopping power. It’ll stop bullets, it’ll survive grenades, it’ll push through swarms of zombies and it’ll look damn good doing it. The Knight XV is basically a hummer killer, a rare armored SUV that’ll protect you on the road from just about any civilian/undead threat. Surprisingly, inside that thick, firewalled skin is a green heartbeat. The Conquest Knight XV features a flex-fueled engine capable of burning petrol and home-made biofuels alike

wear this

When venturing out of safety, it’s important to protect yourself from all manner of cuts, scratches and flesh wounds which could transmit the zombie plague. You don’t need to worry about stopping bullets, which is what most body armor is designed for. You need zombie-proof security suits, designed with tight-fitting, light-weight armor that is tear resistent and as tough as nails. The Urban Security Suit by Tim Smit fits these parameters. We’d add some d3o impact protection and maybe some liquid climate control if we had our way with a suit like this. Anything that can get you through a close-quarter zombie attack without a wound will keep you alive to fight another day.

I love all that kit!
Wanted a knight ever since I saw a picture of it that made the Hummer look like a mini.
That house is ace!
