    Am pretty sure that was a fifth gear episode where they crashed it on purpose into a solid block of cement. Proved that smaller cars are just as safe as bigger ones as the passenger compartment did it's job Thumbs Up

    However the shocker was when they hit an mpv carrier into a D1. I had my money on the D1 being the far safer car. The results proved otherwise Shocked Shocked

    I think it was an age thing with the MPV V D1. The MPV was much younger and therefore had difference safety cell construction to the D1. Proved a point though. The crash testing on the 5 is pretty tough and it holds up really well getting all 5 stars.

    Your probably right with regards too age. Even 5 years is a big difference with all the advances nowadays. What I would like too see would be the D1 v the D5 or the smart v the D1/D5 Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter
