This Soviet-era Zil PEU-1B six-wheeled rover was commissioned during the height of the Cold War by the USSR to retrieve fallen satellites, space junk and even cosmonauts returning from orbit. The search and rescue vehicle has been lovingly restored to its former glory over three years on the territory of the old Zil factory in Moscow and is now roving through the countryside once more.
A creative collective from Moscow calling themselves the Sunrise Expedition have been making waves on Russian social media for one of the most ambitious adventures ever undertaken by a musical group. These traveling musicians, illustrators, and tattoo artists have traveled tens of thousands of miles all over Europe and Asia on Soviet-made Volga cars in order to perform concerts wherever the wind takes them. They drove out from Moscow in fall of 2016, traveled across Asia to Bali, Indonesia by car, and arrived back in Moscow in early 2017, becoming the first musicians to perform in Tibet in the process. The Sunrise Expedition have embarked on a new journey called "To the Atlantic," with the aim of driving all the way out to the famous surf city of Nazare, Portugal. Ruptly caught up with the adventurers in Berlin.
BMW has been setting standards in the development and production of special protection vehicles that combine the driving experience typical of the brand with the highest safety standards for more than four decades. Professional drivers need special knowledge and skills in order to be able to exploit the full potential of these armoured vehicles, which are equipped with special safety-relevant functions, in everyday use. These are taught in the BMW Security Vehicle Training courses. With the current portfolio of special protection vehicles and the intensive training courses for their drivers under the guidance of experienced instructors, BMW has created a comprehensive range of tailor-made security products from a single source.The training programmes are designed for professional drivers who want to improve their skills in handling special-protection vehicles in order to be optimally prepared for extreme situations. As one of Europe's most renowned test and inspection centres for vehicle safety, the training centre in Groß Dölln near Berlin provides the ideal setting. The former military airfield, where the authorities also train their emergency services, was converted into a state-of-the-art driving centre in 2002 and is now the perfect venue for theory lessons and driving exercises for BMW Security Vehicle Training.
