There is an awesome vid of this hatch on youtube, making enough tyre smoke that you can see the aero effects of the hatch and rear spoiler actually doing a *lot* of good things. Very interesting to see, as I'd always figured the spoiler was for prettyness only. Good to see a close up piccy of the car

Any idea what I'd need to search to find that? I can't seem to locate it and I would quite like to watch it:D
