Hi all,

I am looking to purchase my first Westy after a string of VW cars. My
fiancee is not too keen on what whe perceives as a death trap on wheels. I
can't help but agree that a head-on collision in a vanagon might be less
than comfortable for those in the front seats. But I don't care. Help me out
if you can - I need some ammunition to help convince/pursuade her that the
Westy isn't as bad as it seems. Links to Crash test results? Personal
experience? Is she right, and I am just fooling myself?

Thanks Folks,

Chad
