Not really a fan, cant see the point in extra weight in the overhang.
And hate them with 4 doors.

2 door saloons are definitely cool, not a lot heavier and have a far stiffer rear end. Id seriously consider one if I was doing another as they are significantly cheaper than 3 door hatch shells

2dr ones can be cool IMO. With a nice period Euro theme or something along those lines.

My great great Auntie died and left one in her garage which I promtley stole
. 4 speed, 40k Genuine miles IIRC, not a spot of rust, looooads of history and ended up selling it for Ł250 to a lad from Hull with no tax or MOT. Wish I'd kept it as well cool. In standard trim though was probably the single worst car I've ever driven though.

Why not just flash the cash and buy a Cavalier? What's an extra Ł20!
