Re: For Xantia Fans like me the Ncap saftey crash test resul
I'd just not read them if you like your Xantias
Of course there will be those that say NCAP doesn't matter because they don't intend having a crash. That does take into account other morons who might crash into you.
I have no room to talk. I drive down the M1, around the M25 and up the M40 in a low slung bathtub made of aluminium and wood, with a wheel missing....

Re: For Xantia Fans like me the Ncap saftey crash test resul
Yea I've known for years the xantia isn't too good unfortunately.
However the c5 one big plus point is it IS a safe car. Look at the crash tests for the c5..Zero roof buckle on them now that does impress me ...

Re: For Xantia Fans like me the Ncap saftey crash test resul
Well thanks for destroying my love of the S1.
Looks like the passenger suffered a broken wrist (or a limp wrist) in the BX crash test.
Having a rethink now!
Might buy one of these.
