How safe is your ‘used’ car?

Of no surprise the winner is VW’s Passat, which second-hand is quite affordable and provides quality, reliable family motoring. The Bora also scored very well. Our own Falcon and Commodore are nothing to sneeze at, also scoring very high on the chart. Very reassuring news for those of us with limited budgets.

With every test like this, there must be a loser, and this time round it’s Daihatsu’s Hi-Jet (you don’t say) showing a ‘significantly worse than average’ chance of sustaining serious injury in an accident.

So if you’re in the market for a used car, or are just curious to see how your vehicle would perform in a crash, check it out. Much better than finding out the hard way.
