Default IIHS likes V-70's!

A few weeks ago the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety released it's loss ratings for vehicles in various vehicle segments. 2004-2006 Volvo v70 is ranked highest overall in the Luxury car category meaning the lowest overall insurance costs in that car segment. It ranked "substanially above average "in all loss catagories and was best of any car in any segment in the Personal Injury Protection category.

This isn't crash testing data this is what happened on the road

And you are suprised. Just another of the many reasons for owning a Volvo.

I'm gladwe have'nt added any data to those results. I feel a sense of security in my car knowing that a rollover could actually be fun. (<<<< is that a twisted thought or what???)
