It's not a 100% guarantee of what the engine might be but here is a very simple visual check.
The 160TF has the VVC engine which produces its peak power at a higher RPM. To this end, you will see the rev counter red line in a different place. Off the top of my head, I can't remember the numbers exactly but the non-VVC red lines at about 6,750rpm and the VVC red lines at about 7,250rpm - i.e. on the 160 the red line will be above 7,000rpm and the red line on the135 will be below 7,000rpm.
The vehicle index number (VIN) also indicates the power output.
