Personally, I'd rather have him break a wiper than a windscreen. They're cheaper..

The FINAL test was four stars... Not the first one... So YOUR car, FF, is a three star car...

I think much people off this forum haves a 3-stars...
But if you look at tests of the 5 the safety scores good(in magazines)
Autowereld tested the 535d and did not get less points cause he scored bad in Euroncap.
Remember Euroncap testes only a few situations...
