16valves sound..higher pitched and are quicker (still painfully slow) Look around for some pics of the engines.

Also, the engine will have a double over head cam design which looks vastly different to single over head cam design. If you can't tell or figure out the difference, close the bonnet of your car and put the keys in a safe place.
