The link's there for all to see surely?

To be honest it sounds like something of a bargain at that price but I wouldn't be bidding in a hurry with no pictures displayed.

Best engine IMHO but no PAS

What's that parked next to it? looks like a Hillman Imp

If its a TGD turbo it DOES have power steering, its got Gti alloys and a black interior so somoenes being playing with it.

Mmm, never noticed it said turbo, so looks like good value for money then

Top spotting hadn't noticed that!
Door handles and driver's window look very much Imp like.

You can also just see the rear window/hatch hinges if you look very carefully, 100% IMP !

Back on Topic !
Mulley, this BX Turbo oil burner is just up the road from you, with 12 months MOT & 6 months tax, maybe worth a look ?

So worth a look, I'd say.

Philip I did state 'Maybe' as its only up the road for Mulley !
I was thinking more on long the lines of checking it out first and if it was any good, then put a cheeky bid on it if no ones bid, for £150 in the last minute (But at that it may not be sold as it look like there's a reserve) so you could possibly do a cash deal off E-bay after the end of the listing

I meant that £300 is a worthy price given on the face of it, it offers a budget year's motoring. But it has to be said (as you do!|) - viewing recommended...

If it was an estate, I'd be interested!

Forgive my ignorance. What's the difference between the TZD turbo and the TGD turbo? Is it a lower powered engine?

It would be nice to know the milege of it.

Unless I'm mistaken the TGD Turbo is lower spec'd (in terms of trim and toys) than the TZD Turbo.

The TGD has manual rear windows, no front fog lamps or electric passenger mirror or rear aerofoil spoiler, a standard grey tweed BX interior instead of the black GTI type as fitted to a TZD, different wheeltrims and no ABS (which wasnt fitted to all TZDs though)

Mechanically they are the same.
