Ukrainian police in the city of Mykolaiv received an unexpected present in the form of a BMW 6 series, complete with Ukrainian flags and a machine gun turret.
The sports vehicle was left outside the city’s police station, which has seen half of its inhabitants flee in less than a week due to Russian airstrikes.
Despite this, someone took time out of the conflict to customise a fancy BMW sports vehicle with Ukrainian flags, badges, and other decorations and deliver it to the local police.
According to The Daily Star, they even fitted what seems to be a machine gun turret on the back of the BMW 6 Series convertible.
Underneath the lethal weapon lies a direct warning to the Russian invaders.
“Russian warship, go f*** you,” it says in Russian.
The machine gun fitted to the automobile appears to be an NSV machine gun.
“The NSV is standard on Russian tanks, which is presumably where this came from,” tweeted @Sanpaku1970.
“It makes more sense with a flatbed truck, but maybe they’re just messing about with the mount before the downpour.”
Because BMWs are built in Germany, Twitter users joked that this represented Germany’s entry into the conflict.
According to evo.co.uk, the automobile in issue is presently valued roughly £60,000 to purchase new — presumably without the firearms.
