I find interesting to compare these results with those of a 4-star car hailing from 1999, which could now be considered a coffin-on-wheels. (I happen to own one, maybe I should consider getting a Zoe!)

- gambiting 5y agoI don't think these ratings should be considered as absolutes, not can they be compared between years. Your car was a 4-star car when compared against other models introduced that year - if you were to replace it with another 1999 vehicle, you'd need to look for the same level of standards applied back then. But yeah, of course it's going to do worse against a 2022 model - but it doesn't automatically make it a coffin on wheels either.
