Manages adequately round a bend in two-door cars (6)

I believe the answer is:

coupes

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'two-door cars' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'manages adequately round a bend' is the wordplay.
'manages adequately' becomes 'copes' ('cope' can be a synonym of 'manage'. I am not sure about the 'adequately' bit.).
'round' is an insertion indicator.
'a bend' becomes 'U' (a U-bend is a kind of bend - pipe under sink).
'copes' enclosing 'u' is 'COUPES'.

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
