5 door hot-hatches: list them

[LotusOmega375D]

I don't mean the warm ones and I don't mean mid-size (Cavalier/Vectra size) but the proper Golf size hot hatch in a manufacturer's range. It's odd to me that so few of them are family friendly and don't require body contortions to access children in the back seats. I admit that they don't look as nice in 5 door format.

Here's a couple off the top of my head that could be had with 5 doors rather than 3.

Golf GTi and R32
Astra GTE
Integrale & Delta HF Turbo

Or is that too big?

Really - that's a good spot! They were rare when new.

A friend had a Delta HF turbo after a couple of hot Stradas.

Don't think an ST qualifies as they are outgunned by their respective RS models.

Pretty sure the Ti suds were 3 door only.

What rot. An ST is still a hot hatch. It might not necessarily be the fastest in its range but if it can mix it with your other hot hatches, it's a hot hatch.
