General information about the body

A characteristic feature of the car models that are described in this manual is the presence of a design type "Unibody", which uses a trough-shaped body floor element along with front and rear longitudinal spars. They support body parts, front and rear suspension systems and other mechanical components. Certain parts are especially vulnerable during an accident. They can be unscrewed and repaired or replaced. These include tie moldings, bumpers, hood and trunk lids and all glass.

This section provides information only for general maintenance and repair of the body and repair of the body panel, which you can carry out yourself.
