I've had people in Australia try to rent me cars with "no unsealed roads" clauses. For heaven's sake, if you accept that there's very little point in going to Oz! - much more reasonable would be to put a spade in the car so you can dig yourself out of the sand or whatever. (The "kangaroo damage at renter's expense" clause I can accept, once it had been pointed out to me that this means "don't drive in the countryside at night".)
