cars which have bumpers without over-riders

[AntB]

my first traveller had a front bumper like this (1971 on a j plate) and i'd like my second one to have the same.

why were/ weren't bumpers fitted with over-riders from the factory? i'm assuming it's a trim option/ model thing, although as far as i was aware there was fairly little in the way of options available on minors.....

TIA

Over-riders onloy fitted to delux models as standard though many have been retro fitted.....

I wish mine wasn't - I think they look much 'cleaner' without! But of course the bumper is marked now - so removal not really practical.

Overriders are very useful for securing dog leads!
As are wing mirrors and traveller fuel filler pipes

always assuming you can find the dog

If you couldn't see him you could hear him

Your cockadoodle causing trouble again Mike, with that vicious man eating temperment you should take more care

Cockapoo actually. No trouble finding him most of the day, he was underneath cars in the shade, covered in sump oil.
I was tempted to see if he could line dance

my dogs too clever to let me attach his lead to the bumper.

You'd have to drive quite slowly though.
