Бандитские тачки 90-х: От «Жигулей» до бронированных «Кабанов» #90е #криминал #вор #девяностые

The Soviet Union was a land of automobile equality, but the advent of the 1990s shattered this order. In a matter of years, the automobile in Russia transformed from a scarce luxury into a formidable symbol of power. In this video, we'll take an 11-minute journey and recall how the criminal car industry has evolved: why the most dangerous people started with unremarkable Zhiguli cars, why foremen adored BMWs, who climbed back into the legendary Mercedes W140 "Boar," and how fear gave birth to a vast industry of armored cars and escort jeeps. This is the story of cars that became symbols of an era that faded into the sunset to the sound of their engines. Enjoy watching!
