All the old Volvos are there:
200 series - safer than average 700 series - safer than average 900 series - safer than average 850 - safer than average P1 S/V70 - safer than average Interesting that all the cars before Ford bought Volvo are still safer than average in real collisions.

 I also noticed that the 300 (below average) and 400 series (average) were listed. Not bad for smaller cars for their age.
