possibly, but i feel the whole 3 door thing would really only appeal to the younger market, and i think the skoda badge puts them off already

Top rear corner of the door needs to be radiused, not a right angle, if that makes sense? only the metal, not the glass, just to soften it slightly.

I quite like it, I think Skoda missed a trick there.

they made a small handful of 3 doors when they originally released the fabia vrs. but nobody seemed to want them so they went into only producing 5door versions

this info was given to me by a mate who used to work for a skoda main dealer. dunno how right it is tho
