antz Posted October 14, 2007 Report Posted October 14, 2007 we all have heard the one f 'what happens when an unstoppable object hits an unmovable object' and relating this to cars we all know volvos are indestructible!.... so... what would happen when 2 volvos hit each other? would they bouncew off each other like marbles
Pipster007 Posted October 14, 2007 Report Posted October 14, 2007 Good question. But I'm sure this will bounce it's way into "The Corner"

texr2000 Posted October 14, 2007 Report Posted October 14, 2007 Didnt 5th gear do a test with a Volvo and and a small car....then cant rem if they did 2 volvos......
Admin Vista Posted October 14, 2007 Admin Report Posted October 14, 2007 Did you not see the recent show where they crash tested a 90's Volvo (you know, the tank like box shaped once made from railway tracks and cast iron) in a head on collision with a newish renault modus? I think it may have been 5th gear, but if you don't know the result, they'd probably surprise you. The Volvo was minced by the renault and it's front seat occupants would have had serious life threatening injuries (if they weren't already dead) and the occupants of the modern car would have possibly have walked away. Found it, it was 5th gear Still think you're safe in an ageing Volvo?
antz Posted October 14, 2007 Author Report Posted October 14, 2007 that poor volvo! id of bought it before they smashed it i wasnt expecting the volvo to crumple that much! still id rather be driving a volvo than a modus ugly feckers
