How does the safty of a BMW compare with a volvo?

I recently came into possesion of my grandparents 2007 buick. My parents are allowing me to trade it in. I really want to get an 87' stick shift BMW..but my parents argue that its not going to be as safe as this 86' standard volvo i also had my eye on. Are they pretty much equal in stability? (in theory and asuming both cars have passed inspection and have a clean carfax report)How does the safty of a BMW compare with a volvo?Go with the BMW. Volvo's suck.

I'll just keep it simple and straight to the point, with German and Swedish cars...you can't go wrong with safety. Buy either one, and you'll be fine. End of story.



A note about Carfax, if there has been damage and it has NOT been reported to the insurance comany, it will NOT show up on the Carfax Report. You should still have the car checked out by an independent inspector.How does the safty of a BMW compare with a volvo?Have a look at this:

Basically the bigger and NEWER the car the better. Cars from 86, 87 did not have airbags.



Also, old BMWs and I guess Volvo are worn out and cost a fortune to maintain.



A newer "boring" car is probably your best betHow does the safty of a BMW compare with a volvo?
both are the same man , BMW rockks in saffty , acceleration, topspeed, and its and sport car but volvo its safe and every thing but its not for young peaple it like for old *** grand fothers, plus BMW its beutiful compaired to a VOLVO. SO GO FOR THE BMW it is a relible car
Both are safe makes of car but Volvo is probably the safer of the two. However compared to a 2007 car both will be relatively unsafe. Neither will have airbags, side impact protection, traction control etc etc. Car safety has come on leaps and bounds in the last 20 years so you are really bothered about how safe the car is buy a newer one.



Or just get the BMW and forget about safety. It will be a far nicer car to drive than a 1980s Volvo which wil be like a tank in comparison.
