The 750iL Security Project

BMW 750iL E38 Security — bringing a 1996 bulletproof BKA vehicle back to the road. This channel documents the awakening of a 1996 BMW 750iL High Security (E38) - a factory-armored, bulletproof fortress, formerly in service with the German Bundeskriminalamt. Built to protect high-ranking officials in Bonn and Berlin, this V12 beast features B6/B7 ballistic protection, heavy-duty glass, and security systems.

This armored BMW E38 served in a federal context at a time when Germany’s political center was moving from Bonn to Berlin. After being decommissioned in 2006, the vehicle disappeared into a private collection for nearly two decades.
Now it returns.
