Have seen this model listed in the classifieds. What makes the Protection model distinctive from a standard 540i Auto ?

this gives some details its basically a security version, with options like Bullet resistant Glass, h=kevlar pannels etc....

You would need to call BMW for the full car spec IIRC

Yup, it has the optional additional weight to reduce its 0-60 and hinder its progress round corners smile

Unless you're a dealer or find it easy upsetting people I'd stick with the standard offerings.

That said, it's a good talking point!

doesn't look like a protection model at all, and the fact it's bullet proof with inch thick windows hasn't made it into the advert.
