On my way to work from the metro station to the office (its a 10 min walk) I counted 18 Landrovers and 6 Cayenne and 4 Mercedes GT Jeeps. Sorry, I stopped counting other models, but obviously these are among the favorite models of the Russian elite. Here is a video I just found on small world. A Russian SWAT team attempts to arrest some bankrobbers who have driven away in a Porsche Cayenne (License 177 177). They actually catch the wrong car in their first try, but realize it quickly. Nevertheless they broke the windows of the car and put the passangers into the dirty spring slush. Unfortunately they don’t show what happened next, but they show the second real arrest. The team is pretty brutal, but one of the guys is resisting arrest and apparently another cop got shot during the robbery itself.
Moral: We have too many black Porsche Cayenne’s on Moscows streets.
