Your welcome.

On the Buick I was not saying that you should become a slow retired person, Buicks ( or similar ) are a good deal when someone stops driving and are cheap to fix. Sure they may have a few dents and a torn off side mirror, but generally have low miles and more left in them.

I get really concerned when someone is living month to month (especially in a high cost of living area ) or in the case of my link, set on buying a old / complicated car that is physically out of touch of someone familiar with it.

As for the link I posted, be sure to look at the real world collision study / ratings I posted. 80's and older MB were good for their day but have since been eclipsed in terms of crashworthyness by even basic cars.
