Mission walkthrough
-
Bring a durable vehicle
Use a heavy, healthy car or van for the interception. The Securicar takes repeated impacts, so starting in a damaged compact car makes it likely your own vehicle will fail first.
-
Build the damage meter
Catch the marked Securicar and ram it on open road. Use controlled side or rear impacts and leave room to recover between hits. Avoid forcing it into water or destroying it outright: Joey needs the van delivered.
-
Take it when the guards leave
Once the required damage is reached and the occupants get out, stop attacking. Enter the Securicar promptly. Continued gunfire or ramming after the handover point can ruin a nearly completed theft.
-
Drive to the lockup
Follow the delivery marker in the slower armoured van. Take wide corners and keep away from unnecessary fights with police. Park fully inside the marked garage and get out when instructed to complete the handover.
Key point
The damage meter is a threshold to make the guards flee, not an instruction to blow up the Securicar. Stop hitting it when the objective changes.
