Not keen on the 'under the bonnet' side of things then? Its well worth learning a bit.can save a few quid for styling mods.

Sounds to me a 16v, you could check on top of the engine like Black_VR6 said. Or on your reg papers. If you dont know if its a 16v or not, what have you told the insurance company?
?
