I like the chains strapped over the ML, like it is going to try to escape. It reminds me of the AMG monster commercial. (vid somewhere on this site)

Bumper

Looks like the front bumper is going to have some issues if and when they get released.

SL55TOTO, where did you find the photo? It's pretty creepy. "DU REVE AU CAUCHEMAR" in French is "REVE(?) WITH THE NIGHTMARE".

...common people making an example of a political authority? angry spouse?

Yeah, they really ought to be rescued, but I think it has somthing more to do with anti-wealth, or anti-power. Maybe the owner was stealing from poor people, or otherwise oppressing, and he got caught and thrown into prison. Those that suffered because of him have retaliated against the symbols of his wealth and power... ..Or his wife found out about his love affair, and she's holding his cars hostage until he confesses.
