Accident Survivor Decides to Stay with the Grand Vitara XL-7

Ms. Bustamante with her newly purchased Grand Vitara XL-7
19-year-old Vanesa Bustamante feels sure that she and her friend survived a serious accident unharmed only because she was driving her Grand Vitara XL-7: "If I had been driving any of our other cars I might not be alive today." Despite losing control on a slippery road and falling 12 meters down a riverbank, the couple survived the accident. "At the bottom, we landed with the wheels pointed upwards," says Vanesa, "...both of us had our safety seatbelts fastened and the airbags spread out. The car's handling helped me a lot. I don't think that another car could have protected us so well...my friend and I come out of the accident with no more than bruises. The XL-7 is a stable car and I recommend it 100%. After the accident, everybody at home agreed upon buying another XL-7, as the vehicle that offers it all: design, comfort and the most important, everything it takes to provide confidence and security."
