The saloon shares NO body panels with the other models.

Can't imagine they would, surely a sportback is 3dr so a longer door, and saloon is 5dr. Completely different cars.

I think they call the 5dr the Sportback and the 3dr the Hatchback. But the same applies. 3dr and 5dr do share some body panels (but not doors obviously) but saloon does not.
