If these roads are as chronic as you guys are making out perhaps you should be considering something with leaf springs? Maybe a double cab pickup with a truckman top?
Most of the South Loch Tay populus drive 110’s or 130’s with truckman – or a tractor. Even the school bus is a 110. 😆
When we first moved there, a section of road was so rough everyone used the grass verge to save the bottom of your car from being smacked off the road.
Even now in ‘done up’ mode, it has cracks, potholes and edges formed of 3″ stones piled into the drainage ditches, as so many tourists tried to pass without passing place and slid into ditches.
Drive 8 miles of it each morning and back each afternoon, and often twice for work as well in the day, for 6 years, and you get good at knowing each smooth section, each rough section and every pothole, and when the council (won’t) come and de-ice or repair….
