# Armored Maybachs and Volkswagen Tactics

**Published**: February 13, 2026

**Author**: DugganUSA Research

**Category**: Epstein Files Investigation

The Shopping List

April 2009. Someone on Epstein's team compiled a shopping list for armored vehicles.

**Document EFTA02441890:**

> "I am waiting on photos of the S600 from dealer."

> Mercedes S550: http://www.armored-cars.com/vehicles/mercedesS550.html

> Maybach 57 short wheel base: http://www.armored-cars.com/vehicles/maybach.html

> BMW 550 looks interesting: silver

Armored Maybach. Short wheelbase. For maneuverability, presumably.

The Litigation Research

October 2016. Epstein emails an associate about Volkswagen.

**Document EFTA02449265:**

> "look carefully at volkswagen. they were sued by many, their tactics are the only ones available"

This was during VW's emissions scandal. Epstein studying their defense playbook.

The Stock Holdings

**Document EFTA01499731** shows Southern Financial LLC—an Epstein entity—held Volkswagen AG Preferred shares.

Position: 1,400 shares

Value: $354,965.45

Custodian: JP Morgan

Held VW stock. Studied VW tactics. Probably unrelated.

The Warsaw Trip

July 2014. Lesley Groff researches luxury car options in Warsaw.

**Document EFTA01918409:**

> "Luxury Cars in Warsaw - Not a huge selection:

> Audi A6

> Volvo XC60

> Mercedes C180

> No BMW, Lexus, Infinity, Cadillac..."

Warsaw. Where the selection of luxury vehicles is disappointing.
