Yup. I think there were basically two trim levels for the diesels -

originally R, TR (got that wrong above), then TG/TZ. Obviously with the TZ

being the posher spec, buyers will have tended to get the faster engine at

the same time. TZ is a later model though.



Have now remembered how the later ones were labelled : BX17TGD, BX19TGD

BXTGD Turbo



(could have looked outside :-) )

In laws used a BX19TGD for towing caravans for several years. But their

driving style isn`t terribly related to those on this group :-)
