mike6688 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I wonder what are everyone's thoughts on the safety rating for the new mustang: http://www.euroncap.com/en/results/ford/mustang/26063 2 stars seems a bit poor, but Ford have said the newer 2017 models will have more safety features.

stef123 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 There was a video of one loosing control and hitting the back of a pickup, totally and utterly destroyed it. I'll see if I can find the video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon84 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Makes me think twice on choosing a Mustang or a Camaro on holiday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarksST Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 It lost some points for not having features like automatic emergency braking, not having a light to tell you if the passenger airbag is on or off, not being able to fit a child seat in the rear etc, at least it has an ncap rating ferraris, lambos, Porsche etc don't and people stil, want to drive them, lol. if you're going to the states and want one, do it, just got back from Florida and had a V6 mustang auto convertible for 2 weeks, perfect for out there, they are so common though as is the Camaro.

We do the same in Florida, had a few of the last model Mustang now, but last two trips have been Camaro. Will probably be a Mustang in June Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarksST Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 The mustang in that video is the previous generation model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets hope the new ones are built slightly better, and the drivers thereof have a bit more between their ears... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike6688 Posted March 30, 2017 Author Share Posted March 30, 2017 Ouch that was a nasty! Didn't look like it hit hard enough to do that more damage. Obviously can't tell properly from a video though. Hope the guy made a full recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mckmcr Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 not really cool is it? I had one of these on holidays in florida too. And old Audi R8 is one of the strongest cars in this departments, they tried to destroy it shooting Iron Man and they couldnt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustyroger Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Smashing your car sideways on into effectively an rsj is gonna hurt. I go to American shows both here and in the USA, sadly there are always a bunch of numpties who think it clever to drive like the fool in the video, and a collection of equally dumb people who like to watch. It it far worse in the USA than over here, but regrettable wherever it occurs. Roger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jethro_Tull Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 More power than chassis, handle like a one legged cat burying a turrid on a frozen pond, and a two star safety rating. I want one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
