Not really a fan, cant see the point in extra weight in the overhang.

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

Nope sorry, step back from the Chevette 2 door saloon, but I'm biased.

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.
