Stole this from another forum :)

These are ancap ratings also.

I know with the limited models Opel released there isnt going to be a huge amount of data here.
Although many members own other cars, and some not even Opels at all.

+1 to that. Apparently my car is LHD. With No Cruise control And no fog lamps... I call BULLSHIT on this site. Just go to the proper Euro NCAP site which would have the correct info on the majority of the cars here.

Euro NCAP rundown...

4 star rating with 1 star pedestrian rating. So don't get caught infront of my car...

Front impact for driver = Marginal chest/Thigh/Crotch protection With Good for legs and head.
Pitty for a front impact passenger... Head is well protected but nothing better than adequate protection for the rest of the body.

Side impact for driver is Good to adequate. With only the chest area coping a "Adequate" hit.

Overall. Lets hope i'm never in a crash with passengers.
