I believe the bolt on version will be a cost reduction part, (from memory) the clip on covers require a big metal panel bolted to the engine on which to clip. Which is also a pig to remove with the engine in the car. The bolt on covers however don't have this panel.

It was my understanding that the very last few (especially estates) did have bolt on covers, but given that J's are normally 6 to 12 months older than there plate, and K's often a year + older, it's impossible to say anything for certain about a K-reg or newer.

Either way i couldn't track either down at the weekend, so gawd knows where they went.

All my diesels have clip ons including Sophie. As have my 2 spare n/a engines.
