Default 1/8 Buggy for Bashing

I currently have an e-Revo BL and would like to add an electric 1/8 buggy. I will primarily be using the buggy for bashing (is that an oxymoron?) but there is a possibility (albeit a small one) that I may race the buggy at some point in the future. I am looking for a buggy with the following features:
  • it must be as tough as possible for bashing
  • quality components that don't need upgrading
  • parts availability
  • good handling
  • able to accomodate a single 5000mah 6s lipo pack
  • did I mention that it must be tough?
I have been looking at both the Mugen MBX6 Eco and the HPI Vorza Flux. I realise that there is a fair price difference between these two buggies but this is not a major factor. The Mugen appears to be the better handling buggy but I am concerned that it may not be as robust as the the Vorza. I would welcome suggestions as to which is the better option for me or whether I should be looking at something else.
