I dug out some insurance crash test results I posted to the List years ago.
There are pictures of a Vanagon head-on with a Volvo 245.  See
www.251.org/volvocrash.html

Perhaps surprisingly, our vans do well in the real world, at least in a
crash with a car.  I can only imagine how Vanagons would fare crashing into
another heavy, high-wheelbase vehicle, (SUV) with a long hood and airbags.
