Default What race bred buggy for bashing?

I'm only a basher, I 've never raced, but I'd love a decent buggy to take to BMX tracks and skateparks. What 1/10 2wd/4wd buggy would you say could handle a bashing without breaking every time and is also fairly cheap for parts?

Looking at some of the bashing videos on Youtube, i'd say anything race bred will be knackered within a couple of hours.

Get a second hand 8th scale. Very rarely break and part pricing is generally in line with 10th scale parts.

Mines nearly 3 years old and all i've replaced from crashing is a couple of wishbones and a diff housing. Total cost about 20 quid.

(I've worn a fair bit out, but not broken much!)

Get a Losi Ten SCTE, basically a 1/8th buggy with a truck body.
Bulletproof.
