Blimey he got that one ebay quick. Had to let this one go as we've got a TZD estate now. Mum wasn't too happy having too many cars parked on the drive!

Same seats as the 16v? Dont think so looks standard TZD turbo to me, also didnt the hurricane have a special green interior the same pattern as an early Xantia VSX?.

Lovely car though and worth the money, but someone PLEASE put them badges the right way round! :lol:
Lots of Motors, mostly semi broken....

The description in the advert is very honest. Never had any problems with the car whilst we owned it. Everything worked as it should suspesion, brakes, power stearing etc. You'll see when you view it and drive it that it really does "pull like a train". Body work is straight other than what has been mentioned in the ad. It got me from Brighton to Hertfordshire (about 95 miles) on various occasions faultlessly.

Heavens, that is big writing in that ad - I had to stand a metre away to read it! Trying to sell to myopic BXers?

/\ Correct I think someones done a bit of a swap over with a TZD/GTi in the past by the looks of it as it should have the same interior as 'Hurricane's' Hurricane :D :-

I hope you don't mind Martyn to show which type of interior it should have, from your GALLERY posting 8)

Therefore the E-Bay one does not quite live up to what one should expect owning a 'Limited Edition' TZD Hurricane IMHO !

It's fine RXBX and it's had a clean up inside since then. :P

This one now sold for £600.

I think Tim's referring to the boot lid badges. Although my mates Hurricane has them the same way as this one, but different badges :roll:

Has it sold to anyone on here? Thats a hell of a lot more than I paid for it when we rescued it a year or so ago. Been through a few sets of hands since then!
