It doesn’t need to be that simple. The rules listed above are the only rules. He already said SOHC 2/3 only, so only use SOHC 2/3!

just a quick question. are the coupe’s that can be morphed into sedans off limits (i.e. the non manta/non pinto)?
Yes, because they’re not sedans. A sedan is a 4 door car with two rows of seats.

ah, shit. i did not see the 4 door part.
well that puts a touch of the shitter on my design 
Well, that’s the most common type, but there were also cars with only 2 doors which were called sedans. But yeah, the rules state clearly that it must have 4 doors.
you need 5 or 6 seats otherwise he wont let you revise
@szafirowy01 i wonder if 4 door cars that kinda look like hatchbacks count as sedans
Not a hole, as in the rules there is “4 door sedan”, so even if you count some 2-door cars as sedans, they are not allowed here.
If it’s a liftback, then that’s a 5 door sedan (I’d say). Just use your common sense, it’s not a difficult rule to comprehend.

Those are all sedans. They just look like liftbacks. Just like some new sedans… cough Civic cough
That is Citroen, not France.

Renault had similar designs, I’m not saying all of France drove weird liftback sedans, but just that it’s was far from unheard of for non traditional sedans to roam the French countryside.

Peugeot 404: About to be cancelled in 75 
Ohh, the question! Smaller sedan or larger sedan?
Why are people finding this so difficult?

Well despite that, the boot of the civic opens like in a regular sedan. It’s a pretty bigass boot though. It’s enough to tempt me from my usual habit of Hatch for convenience (also the Civic Hatch is a
too crude and chunky imo).
In Automation we are accustomed now to building around the rules when we can. Every brief represents a different level of scope.
i still prefer this

The first day back at the office. There’s nobody on the shop floor of Conan Cars PLC R&D department. Maybe the employees are still hangover from all the booze they had on holiday. The first man who arrived at the shop was Rory, one of the engineer. As soon as he got into the shop, the sound of the ancient fax machine attracts Rory’s attention. He read it immediately.
“Bloody foreigner…” Rory mused, casually lighting up cigarette. It seems that even though he’s amused by the fax, he at least understand most of it.
Rory then look around the shop floor, which was full of the development mule for the C44 Euro Sedan that was slated to be unveil in 1980. Rory eyes caught on something, however, it was sitting in the corner of the shop. A very blue, very wedge-shaped, very weird looking car.
“Ahh fuck it. If our own onion munching knobs don’t want it, maybe the other onion munching knobs will do.” Rory said, then flicking the cigarette butt at the thing. He seems not to be much fond of the thing.
“Maybe this car will have a purpose after all…”

Storm Automotive’s workshop was busy that night when the fax came in. A strange order for a strange car, something designed around an engine that used a technology we’d barely touched.
“Do you think they’ll like it?”
“Probably.”
“Tell the truth.”
“The truth is that I don’t know. I’m remaining optimistic.”
“Well, we are sending it to the French.”
“What’s that got to do with anything? We’re an American company that somewhat ripped off a British design, pissed a little German into the styling, and hoped like hell that our styling department could make up for our lack of inspiration.”
“Aren’t the French usually, you know, drunk? The wine and everything.”
“I think that’s just a stereotype.”
“Still, there’s a chance.”
“There’s a chance for a snowball not to melt in hell, too.”
