MERCEDES-BENZ
VPAM VR10 ◆ V12 Biturbo 612 hp ◆ 4MATIC ◆ 4 Seats ◆ Germany































This armored Mercedes-Benz S 680 VR10 for sale is a factory-built GUARD limousine — the Mercedes-Benz S 680 GUARD 4MATIC — certified to VPAM VR10, the highest civilian ballistic protection level, a step above the traditional B7 / VR9. Unlike an aftermarket conversion, the protection cell is integrated from the design stage: a self-supporting armored shell engineered around the occupants and certified as a complete vehicle by the Beschussamt Ulm, then clad in discreet S-Class bodywork. Power comes from a 6.0-litre V12 biturbo developing 450 kW (612 hp) and 830 Nm, sent to all four wheels through 4MATIC and a 9G-TRONIC automatic — the first GUARD saloon with all-wheel drive, matched to the substantial armored weight. The cabin is a four-seat First-Class rear, finished in Obsidian Black metallic over exclusive Nappa full leather with burr-walnut trim, and equipped with the GUARD survival package: PAX run-flat tyres, fire-extinguishing system, emergency fresh-air system and endangered-person alarm. Certification covers both ballistic and blast resistance under VPAM directives. Presented as a new vehicle with 100 km, immediately available, located in Germany and offered through HYPERLUXE at €739,000. As with any armored car, the vehicle delivers its protection in combination with a trained chauffeur and sound security protocol.
This armored Mercedes-Benz S 680 VR10 for sale sits at the very top of the civilian armored vehicle segment. VPAM VR10 is one of the highest civilian ballistic levels available on a complete passenger car, designed to resist heavy, targeted attacks — including long-arm fire with powerful, armor-piercing ammunition — rather than only handgun threats. As a factory GUARD model, it is engineered, tested and certified by Mercedes-Benz as an integrated whole.
This bulletproof Mercedes S-Class off-market is published through HYPERLUXE as a verified broker listing reviewed before publication. HYPERLUXE checks the key information supplied for the listing, including the broker's direct link to the source, the main characteristics, the stated protection level, availability, status and listing consistency.

For heads of state, exposed public figures, diplomats, family offices and executive-protection teams seeking an executive armored vehicle or VIP armored vehicle, this example offers a documented specification, immediate availability and a location in Germany with open access to international export. Submit a direct inquiry from this page to reach the responsible broker.
VR stands for Vehicle Resistance: the rating applies to the entire assembled vehicle — glass, doors, pillars, roof, floor, joints, cable runs, hinges and locks — not to isolated panels. VR10 sits above the classic B7 / VR9 and targets military-grade threats, notably 7.62 mm-class armor-piercing ammunition under VPAM protocols. Achieving it as a complete, usable, discreet and dynamically coherent car — rather than simply stopping a single round — is the real engineering challenge, which is why a genuine factory VR10 certification is so significant. Buyers should always confirm certificate, exact standard, laboratory, test date and the certified perimeter.
The S 680 GUARD 4MATIC is not an S-Class armored after the fact. Mercedes-Benz integrates a dedicated, self-supporting protection cell at the design stage and certifies the car to VPAM VR10 through the Beschussamt Ulm, with testing that includes both ballistic and explosion (blast) trials — Mercedes even references biofidelic dummies to better simulate blast effects on the human body. The standard S-Class appearance then conceals the architecture, preserving discretion. This combination of highest-tier protection and full manufacturer integration is what separates it from an added-on armoring package.
The 6.0-litre M279 V12 biturbo produces 450 kW (612 hp) and 830 Nm, driving all four wheels via 4MATIC and a 9G-TRONIC automatic — the powertrain is sized for the considerable armored weight and chauffeur-led use. Beyond the armor, survival systems matter as much as resistance: PAX run-flat tyres, a fire-extinguishing system, an emergency fresh-air system, an endangered-person alarm (GAS), power-assisted doors and emergency-release functions all support the ability to leave a danger zone, not merely absorb an attack.
Begin with a direct inquiry on this page. HYPERLUXE exposes the reviewed listing and gives the mandate an additional point of visibility; the responsible broker manages the buyer relationship, certification proof, document sharing, negotiation and transaction. The car is located in Germany; export and tailored arrangements can be discussed directly with the broker. VR10 denotes a tested resistance level, not invulnerability — a complete protection outcome also depends on driver training, convoy protocol and route planning.

The S 680 GUARD is certified to VPAM VR10, the highest civilian ballistic protection level — a step above the traditional B7 / VR9. Mercedes-Benz develops it as a factory-armored vehicle with an integrated, self-supporting protection cell certified by the Beschussamt Ulm, tested for both ballistic and blast (explosion) resistance per VPAM directives. It is a civilian armored vehicle, not a military one.
It is factory-armored. The S 680 GUARD is not an S-Class modified after the fact: the protection cell is integrated from the design stage by Mercedes-Benz, then clad in standard S-Class bodywork for discretion. This is a manufacturer-engineered armored car, certified as a complete vehicle rather than panel by panel.
It uses the 6.0-litre V12 biturbo producing 450 kW (612 hp) and 830 Nm, driving all four wheels through 4MATIC and a 9G-TRONIC automatic — the first GUARD saloon with all-wheel drive, matched to the considerable armored weight. Top speed is electronically limited to around 190 km/h on the protection tyres, with 0–100 km/h in approximately 6.0 seconds (manufacturer figures).
Four seats, configured as a First-Class rear with chauffeur package, ENERGIZING rear, executive comfort features and a Burmester 3D surround sound system. Survival equipment includes PAX run-flat tyres, a fire-extinguishing system, an emergency fresh-air system and an endangered-person alarm system (GAS).
