Base models don't have one, mid spec have a rubber type and gti/turbo have the pram handle type so far as I know.
If you are planning on fitting one sometimes it's best to change the whole tailgate as removing them is tricky as they are bonded on.

& in addition the 1990 16v model will have the flat spoiler, as by 1990 it was in the 'phase 2' shape.

To be fair, that's the bootlid, they just painted the foil at the botton black on mid-spec upwards models. All BXs have that :P

Much prefer the small rubber strip as opposed to the pram handle type (which I have on my tzdt and have never liked) I just think they're a bit cumbersome and look like they were drawn up by a child. And completely useless to boot.

And unlike the BX's boot, which is just c-a-v-e-r-n-o-u-s, and far from useless!

The "spoiler 3" was found in GT-models. We call that spoiler "duck-tail" herearound.
