This is the sort of video that stops you buying a budget banger. Euro NCAP has been testing cars’ crash impact safety for 20 years, and to mark the milestone has released this footage comparing one of its original tests to one of its latest.

Taking two small cars; 1997’s Rover 100 and today’s Honda Jazz, the direct comparison via split-screen footage is a serious reminder of why buying the newest car you can afford is always a safer idea. Unless it’s a Mustang, it seems.

Watch the video and make your own mind up. Let us know whether this film gets you in the feels, or whether you’re just too much of a maverick to care.

The rover just has the option of sharing an airbag that’s all
