2004 Volvo S40 review from North America
"Very safe - I know from experience"
General comments?
I was broadsided on the driver door side by an Infiniti SUV going about 35 mph - all airbags deployed - not hurt at all - plenty shook up though - but the car was total loss.
The dealer was right - they are very safe!!
