If you aren't carrying rear seat passengers around every day, then the additional weight of the doors, the extra gubbins to go wrong, and the fact there are 2 extra very large holes in the bodyshell seem a bit pointless.

But here we have to keep in mind that the (front) doors on a 3 - door model is much longer than they are on a 5 - door model, so the 2 extra 'holes' in the bodyshell aren't that much much bigger. I'm not sure how much the extra weight of the two rear doors are, though.
