Marc Ecko Has a Gurkha [Video]

If you thought the H1 or the International CXT were big, then you haven’t seen the imposing Gurkha. Though it's not really a city car, Marc Ecko is already an owner of a personalized Gurkha and pilots this thing around on a regular basis. We have even found a video of this monstrosity, which by the way is armored plated.

We assume he wears camouflage trousers, combat boots and a bullet proof vest when he drives this. It does look a bit overdone, as this whole HUMMER military vehicle thing is over. The car is made by Conquest Vehicles Inc., the Toronto-based company that specializes in the design and manufacturing of fully armored, ultra-luxurious, handcrafted sport utility vehicles.

According to the manufacturer, the vehicle may be armored to the NATO STANAG 4569 level 3 which exceeds the CEN European B7 armor level. What’s more, it is also easily serviceable, as it is mounted on the Ford F550 chassis. The Gurkha has a typical SUV configuration of four side doors and a single rear cargo-crew exit door and carries a total crew of up to eight passengers.

Interior features include Wilton Wool luxury carpeting, Andrew Muirhead leather, 6-way electric leather boardroom-style seating, Tandem sunroof glass with privacy shades, Personal side-mounted lap top stations, LED cabin lighting, Alpine AM, FM, CD, DVD navigation and Bluetooth equipment, TV Monitors, Night vision and rear op camera system and Playstation 3 (PS3). The cabin's 283-cubic-foot interior is larger than the interior of most SUVs on the road today and can comfortably seat a lot of professional basketball players.
