Todays Auto Express has an article on crash safety.....

The MY93 - MY00 Impreza comes bottom as the least safe. it basically says that in a crash with another car you have a 8% chance of 'dying or being injured'. Seems a little ambiguous to me.

It also doesnt specify model types, so seemingly the Sport driver is just at risk as the WRX driver.

Will have to hide this from the other half.

Any other comments ?

Does this factor in the speed of collisions, or the nature of the accidents?

I suspect Impreza's are driven faster, than say a Fiesta so in an impact there would be more energy to absorb.
