Current Auotocar article states that 16v's weren't galvanised. I thought they all were... confused I hope I haven't bought a coop that's going to look like a Swiss cheese (or it's Italian equivalent) in the next few months.. shocked

I can't see the next few months making any difference to its present condition.
Just give it a good check over.

They were. And there is a suspicion that they were made of slightly thicker steel than later 20v cars, so they appear to be lasting a little better.

Thanks guys. The above was a lame attempt at humour but after extensive culinary research the closest Italian cheese is Asiago produced in the regions of Veneto and Trentino-Alto Adige and is a versatile little number apparently yum

Well hopefully you won't find any rust holes. But if you do you could fill em with pasta just to keep it all in theme.

Al dente of course. Any more and it drops out on the motorway.

Maybe the old tin worm just doesn't find them that interesting? coffee
