I thought the ATZ weren't available (apart from old stock) at the moment because they're not manufactured in a "clean oil" facility and are therefore banned by EU legislation.

As I understand it, they're phasing the reintroduction so 16" will be back later this year. If you're going for a larger size, you might still be able to get hold of them. One that started out as a 2.4 TDCi 110 XS

As i said before they are very noisey. They will drive you mad after a while.
