Which is the safest family car?

Question:
I live in Greece and to say the roads here are dangerous is an understatement. The chances of having an accident are very high. I am pregnant and thinking of the safety of my child, which is the safest car to buy? I want something that wont crumple in a collision, apart from a tank I just don't know what to look for. We don't have thousands to spend, up to 15,000 Euro.

I researched this for my wife and daughter recently. I purchased a Mercedes Benz ML320 for my wife to drive. It comes standard with every safety feature imaginable, including front and rear side airbags, full time four wheel drive and stability control. I don't know what a used one would cost in Greece, but I bought a 2000 model last year, with 46,000 miles, for $18,000 in the U.S. I would highly recommend this vehicle.
