disclaimer. don´t try this at home /in real life. 
it might be illegal, you or somebody may get hurt, 
valuable property might be damaged. 
the armored cars i was paid to ride some 14 years ago 
were said to stop 7,62mm nato and anything smaller with 
windows or walls, the tires (,was said,) had a runflat 
option, the radio was permanently manned and could not 
only reach the own dispatcher, but the local police 
emergency desk, too. a system of airlock-type doors 
blocked direct passage from the outside to the 
wheel/radio.

now the weak points. our vans were painted in very dark 
blue, the motor compartment sat between driver and radio 
operator. at least when the sun was shining it got hot 
inside. as the cars had no aircondition, we used to open 
small hatches in the roof. a small handgrenade or a gas 
flare from some  kind of launcher might possible pass 
through. of course this won´t open the doorlocks.
shooting or breaking off the antenna or shielding it 
with a kind of tinfoil hat might supress reinforcements, 
but  telecommunications have changed a lot in the last 
years.
the time approved way (i know of at least three 
different cases that worked like this). force the 
armored car to stop and aim visible with what looks like 
a anti-tank-rocket, ask the security guards to open the 
door and deliver the money. escape fast and don´t ask 
what kind of weapons the pursuing agencies will use when 
they know you have an atm.

on atms. the ones i know in my area are quite heavy, but 
compact. at least one i know is hinged inside the wall 
and can be swung like a door if you have the right key.
proper use of hydraulic equipment (say car jacks) might 
help.
