Here in Astholm, we have released the first diplomatic special vehicle ready for export.

It is available with weapons inside (not loaded), high-tech security systems, and can be customised to your nation's needs.

Celsan Afestra DPL

The Celsan Afestra DPL is available now. It comes in either a five-door hatchback or estate (wagon) bodystyles, and is powered by a 1.8-litre/136bhp 16v 4-cylinder petrol engine. (A Flexifuel version is also available too, on request). The Afestra uses the platform of GMM's Astra, and takes some design elements from it, but is not a plagiarism/copy of it.
"DPL" is not a trim level, it is an abbreviation of diplomat.

There is only one trim level available (DPL Base) but it is very well-equipped, and more so than a regular Celsan Afestra. All have a 5-speed manual transmission, but an automatic gearbox is £1000 over the manual.

Alloy wheels are standard on all models. They are 17-inch five-spoke alloy wheels locking bolts and 225/45 R 17 ultra-low profile tyres, and are GMM-supplied.

Any nation's embassy is welcome to have one.

There is a choice of ten colours: Jet Black, Bright Red (pictured above), Power Red (see image below), Ultra Blue (Pictured Above), Black Sapphire, Silver Lightning, Metro Blue, Technical Grey and Olympic White.

Prices start at £16,485 for the hatchback, and are £17,213 for the estate (wagon) version.

All requests will be accepted; we have accepted 30 of these from neighbouring Kilcanada and 22 as diplomatic cars in Celdstane.

We look forward to your interest, and appreciate all interest from buyers.

Our nation is offering them at £500 less than their usual price if ambassadors/diplomats buy 10 or more for their various embassies.

We have discounts on the unsold versions of these cars; a new Celsan Afestra DPL will be launched later in the year.
