There are many definitions for "luxury". In some places it means over-the-top opulence. In others, quiet sophistication. But in some parts of the world, it means security. (Like Mexico City, for example, where the violent crime rates are high and also where the world's richest man happens to live.) And for just such volatile regions, Land Rover has come out with their latest armored SUV.

Starting with the Discovery (known in some markets as the LR4), Land Rover has teamed up with the security specialists at Centigon to install all manner of ballistic protection measures – from steel plating and run-flat tires to the upgraded brakes and suspension needed to keep it all under control – to keep its occupants safe.
