The reason Ford didn't build the first Cosworth into a saloon shell is simple, the saloon Sierra wasn't available until 1987, the 3 door Cosworth was released in 1985

ermmm im talking about the orion vs escort, escort being hatch, orion being saloon (escort with a boot) y no orion rs turbo, or orion cosworth, ermm simple becoz the hatch, has less weight meanin quicker of the mark, better handling, same with the astra(hatch) belmont (saloon)= astra with a boot, the list goes on, the extreme spoiler looks like sumat outta the maccy d's club or for the people who wish they had a evo or subs, honda made the chassis and intendid it for a hatch, u dont see many ferrari's, lambo's, buggatis ect ect in saloon, hmmm i wounder y??? and as u say the saloon was made for touring cars, that dont mean zit, as far as i remember the proper touring cars and rally cars were hatch's, and dont mind me spelling coz ive had a few stella artois haha
