Prison threat for bull bar dealers

[AndyLala]

Its not just selling them. Its also fitting them, or at least having them invoiced... ARB are currently considering pulling out of europe as a result.

Eddie and JJ at Frog's Island not best pleased... currently frantically looking for winch bumpers without bars... and/or buying all european ARB stock and cutting off the bull bars, converting them into winch bumpers. They are currently pulling out all the stops to get all existing projects completed/tested and out of the door and billed before the 25th...

Big market in Europe for overlanders that really need bull bars...

Seems to be just another wedge into driving us away from our personal choice.

The thing that gets me is that if a car hits you at 30 - 35 mph having or not having a bullbar will be a moot point, it'll do a fair amount of damage.

Now the new cars that are designed to deflect pedestrian, absolutely, putting a bull bar on those would be very dangerous... but who can afford a new car...?

if anyone had any real choice, who actually wants to stay in england? if you were comfortable and could work nicely outside uk and live, would you really want to stay here? 40% tax for some unlucky people. im not going to thread hijack.canada seems nice

What alot of bull...! Whats the difference between a pedestrian being hit by a bullbar or being hit by a steel bumper? Or will we need to fix a mattress to the front?

You mean you DON'T have a mattress on the front of yours??

I use it to protect my bullbar from all the stupid pedestrians milling about in the road!
