#1: Unibody Differences between hatchback and Cab?? Author: AX-Rated, Location: Swansea, WalesPosted: Tue Nov 18, 2014 12:41 pm ---- Hey all,
Its a weird query I know, and one that i've found hard to answer just by searching t'internet.
But what differences, if any, are there, between the regular 206 and 206cc unibodies??
Did they strengthen them or is the standard 206 unibody design strong enough without the roof?
Anyone got pictures of undersides of the two models for visual comparison?
Thanks.

Would love to see any photos of the undercarriage of one for comparison.

They are rattling b*gg*ers when they start to age as well!

I was thinking the the same. The way those bars are laid out, would stop torsion along the body rather than lateral stiffness around the mid section.
