Puny exhaust is giveaway - but did Hurricane have the 16v rear spoiler and C pillar slats?

Yep, Hurricanes had the whaletail and side pods.
Although this one being french would be the french version of the Hurricane, which was the Oraine or some such....

I thought (that in UK at least) only 16v had that spoiler and Hurricane got Gti spoiler.
I therefore cannot recall ever seeing a Hurricane if it indeed has the 16v spoiler

no hurricanes got the 16v spoiler in the uk tali!
used to see a hurricane quite often and flash it thinking it was Bob/Rob in the triton valver!!

There is a tzd turbo hurricane bx in st austell identical to that one in the pic, the hurricane model came as a 1.7 td or 1.9 8v gti with 16v spoiler and side pods but no kit. It was a special edition with its own interior.
Timmo,
we dont have the green 16v anymore, we sold it and kept the blue 8v gti as its in better condition with a lot less miles so you cant miss us now!.
