That is a truly stunning vehicle which deserves a shed load of credit spent on it, to make it into the prestige vehicle that it really is.

    Hey Kez,

    Keep it up. As for everyone else, why is 3 doors so special have you ever thought that in theory the 5 door may actually be a stiffer bodyshell? the 3 door 'holes' are very big! Also the 5 doors are only 20kg heavier.

    But don't want to get into a slating match, just want to say a '6' isn't everything! He clearly wants something fast but also comfortable.
