Is this the car Jeremy needs when his wife's on the warpath? Top Gear finds 'world's most unstoppable vehicle'

It's the car Jeremy Clarkson may need if his wife is on the warpath over his alleged affair.



That's because this vehicle is about as indestructible as they come.

Tested on Top Gear by Clarkson's co-presenter Richard Hammond, the Marauder is a ten-ton military vehicle that the public can buy - if you have £300,000 spare.

Indestructible: The Marauder blasts through a brick wall during a series of challenges to prove it is the world's toughest vehicle

To prove its credentials on the battlefield, Hammond conducted a series of tests to show just what it can do.

Most staggeringly of all, the presenter placed seven pounds of plastic explosive under the vehicle to see what damage it caused.



The answer was very little. In fact the car barely even had a scratch, with just a flat rear tire and damage to a piece of trim.

In contrast a Hummer - another military vehicle - was blown to pieces by the same amount of explosive during the test.

Hammond also blasted through brick walls in Johannesburg without even slowing, and showed a cheeky wheel-clamper who was boss by pulling his tow-truck.

He also turned a couple of parked cars into two piles of scrap metal and took a trip to a safari park to meet a couple of hungry lions.



Hammond was in Johannesburg because the car is South African built by the Paramount Group.

It is 21 feet long and 9 feet tall. Its engine produces 290 horsepower, with a top speed of 70mph.

With its military background the car has windows that are 9cm thick and cannot be opened - apart from a small porthole.



The windows are so rigid that they can withhold a rocket propelled grenade attack.

And with it being able to repel an RPG, the car is also kitted out for the warzone.
