Has anyone seen any crash tests, or does anyone have any information regarding how safe the mini is in a crash?

I love this car...and the only thing that would get me just one little big anxious is driving this small of a car in a country where everyone seems to drive huge SUV's...

Still, i am getting the Cooper S, and i would not trade it with anything...and as far as safety is concerned, i am sure that the level of energetic safety (being able to avoid the crashthis car offers is unmatched...

any thoughts?

I'd be more anxious driving an SUV with Firestone ty(i)res.
