If they really want to test it out, they should also try shooting into the door jambs and roof.

Mercedes Guard videos are also fun to watch.  Here's the new W212 E-class getting shot at/blown up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgB9ZyMufes | |

A lot of it is 'soft' armour like sheets of kevlar, or aramid so they can maintain the orignal shape of the car
The heaviest weight is probably the upgraded windows...in an accident the car will still crumple like most cars. It's only designed to withstand tiny projectiles (weighing grams) at ballistic speed, not huge impacts like a 3500lb vehicle, with a 450lb engine block mashing into the side of it
Same reason why a vest will stop a 9mm bullet (7-9 grams) dead in it's track, but won't save it's user from getting KO'ed by a 14lb sledgehammer swung by hand

what kind of yield do those explosives have in that test? something like a grenade? C-4? roadside bomb iraq/afganistan-style?

the factory ballistic one is about 300-400,000
that Rolls would be SUPREMELY expensive. Quote:

Mount that sideways on a telephone pole or side of a building, so it blasts through the windows and guillotines whoevers inside...
Even home-made EFP's in Iraq can defeat all modern armour designed to withstand ANTI-TANK mines..
OR
Roadblock the vehicle long enough to punch into the side of it with an industrial forklift. It'll go right through it.
