it's all gone a bit Ed Doe

Unfortunately when pug designed these, they designed them to try and not transfer the force to the cabin (not that they did a very good job) but it also means the cars arnt very repairable. You look at more modern cars and all these sort of parts are replaceable (admittedly difficult to do). Shame pug couldn't of put a bit more time and money into developing them a bit better. Instead they were basically made as a throw away item. Then again they could of just done away with all safety systems and fitted 4 pots. Probably cheaper!
