how much you want for your saloon has it got mot any pics yet you lazy git. i presume its for door i could put up with that but the doors are so small and when you go to look out window all you can see is the door pillers.

yea, vaux gave up the idea i think as ppl at the time thought it as a bit of a false economy, havin a boot but only 2 doors - i dont think they sold well so the model was dropped........

jus chuck a dash and front end on a mk1

Migh be worth taking a trawl round all the local small garages near you. I kept looking on autotrader and in the classifieds but never saw any for months - then decided to actually get off my arse and look lol, and found loads of them, all one careful old lady owners with hardly any rust. Traders said they usually didn't bother advertising them as they weren't worth much and "everybody prefers hatches anyway". Hmm :wink:

nope, hatch ones are longer. Also i think the saloon ones curve down in the bottom corner where as hatch ones are straight.
