Clearly the new European legislation (2005/66/EC) on Frontal Protection Systems is not only causing immense confusion within the industry but is also seen as “more rubbish to come our way from Brussels”. Unfortunately, 2005/66/EC is now effective and is a law that all 4x4 owners cannot overlook.

We, Concept Mouldings (www.conceptmouldings.co.uk) did not produce the legislation and do not associate ourselves with the anti 4x4 lobby but want to offer 4x4 drivers an alternative. This alternative is known as Endura (www.endura-fps.com) and we, Concept Mouldings are proud to be partners with Land Rover, who chose to utilise our innovative Endura technology in its robust, off road use, which have been used for several years on Land Rovers camel trophy vehicles and for its urban vehicles.

Endura not only complies with the new legislation but makes 4x4s up to 50 times safer for the pedestrian, combating any safety campaign from the anti 4x4 lobby. Endura offers rugged protection for off road drivers, by reducing vehicle damage when involved in collisions with trees and also travelling through water and brush at high speeds.

We have been in liaison with the UK government regarding the 2005/66/EC legislation for a long period of time and the many postings indicate clarification is needed. If you have any questions, then please do not hesitate to make a post and we will endeavour to clarify as best we can.
