What is the ENCAP safety rating of our beloved rocs?
I was watching an old top gear re-run (on dave of course!) and they were going on about the encap star rating system. Anything below 3 stars is basically rubbish. Now i would suspect VW are quite keen on safety...but i may be wrong!
Safety rating anyone?

Same problem as you it won't load. Surely it must be higher than 3 star.
