Durable New car

[bigshineybike]

We're looking to change our Volvo XC60. I've been disappointed how delicate it is.
As a rugged SUV with four-wheel drive it should be a good country tool.
The bumpers and trims are so delicate and expensive to replace I just don't want another.

Aside from anything built 10 years ago what modern cars are fit for
Parisian parking
Cornish hedges
Supermarket carparks?

Unfortunately many of the old-school bumpers went out with the advent of pedestrian impact protection. People are more costly to repair than vehicles.

the 1980s brought us the MGB rubber bumper, the volvo beams with sprund mounts and I had a Saab 900 that you could park against a wall.

Although Maybe that wasnt pedestrian protection?

You can buy imported 70-series Land Cruisers for a somewhat eye watering price.

Blimey, staggering to wonder how so many terrorist organisations can afford these trucks.
