A motor vehicle includes a vehicle body, a bumper cover, and a fastening device for attaching the bumper cover to the vehicle body. The fastening device has a triangular shape and includes a restraining member, a fastener configured to secure the restraining member to the vehicle body, and a pivot member articulated to the restraining member for swinging about a pivot. The pivot member has a pivot-distal end which is supported on the restraining member via a support member which is angled in relation to the pivot member. The support member is configured to undergo a deformation, when a force is applied upon the bumper cover in a vehicle longitudinal direction and transferred onto the fastening device, thereby causing the pivot member to swing about the pivot against the restraining member.
