We call it Sprechgeschirr. Behördendeutsch. But it's better than an anglicism.

Sprechgeschirr *kopfschüttel* I can understand that the officials try not to use anglicisms, but that's just ridiculous. Reminds me of the Trittplattenbremsventil.

Yeah, check out the pimped G36 on these pictures.

I don´t think the German embassy lets their staff drive around with unarmored cars.

Ha, ha, ha! This was a very good one. Of course they drive around MOSTLY with unarmored cars. That´s the sad reality on the ground.
Ironiemodus an: The German Embassy is peacefull and wants just the best for their Afghan friends. How you can belive that the Embassy needs protected cars? Ironiemodus aus.

A part the jokes, they drive around mostly with old stuff. I saw last time a German Ambassy secretary driving with an old VW Golf I. Of course he didn´t wear a ballistic vest but he wore a grey suit........
