Also, I think the 5dr saloon would be better if it had standard 5dr doors and rear quarter window? I doubt Rover would want to make extra parts if they could utilise existing ones?

Like them tho!

Location: Dudley, Midlands		Couldn't use the rear side glass without moving rear window back.
Would have quite a large rear shelf for a saloon then...
and a smaller boot opening!

Doors on the saloon are the same as hatch though.

Location: Tamworth, Staffs		Very good.

And I can say I have the pickup in realy life

btw, you should edit the 4 door version so the side skirts join line in matched to the door as per 3 door or one peice as I have seen before on a 5 door Si with GTi kit on

Location: Dudley, Midlands		Yeah I'm loving the estate and van version myself!
Whole thing started as curiosity about building a saloon project...
but the estates won me over... NEED to own one!!

There's a hint in the saloon, but the estate is very Montego-esque I agree!!
From that side-on angle it does share family traits!

The baby Montego look a like estate is smart as hell. Think the pickup would look better with 4 door front doors and a longer back, for some reason (less space in the cab means more for the bed?) pickups always seem to use the shorter doors

Location: Dudley, Midlands		Know what you're saying...
but if you look where the seats are in relation to the 'B' pillars on 3 and 5 doors,
you wouldn't actually gain any bed space without reducing seat adjustment a lot!?

The 3dr route makes for a nice straight 'B' post/pillar, nice and easy to reinforce.
Probably an easier (lazier) conversion, which sounds about right for 90's Rover!?!
