Very easily.. Look under the bonnet and if you see a turbo pipe running next to and to the left of the air filter box then you have a 110...

The 90 does not have this pipe as it has no intercooler.. In fact, that's another way, just look for two big hoses going to the intercooler to confirm it's a 110..

I expect another will soon post an under-bonnet picture to illustrate what I've just described..

Knicked from falling-out-with-my-car's recent post (this is a 110):

110s have RHZ in the VIN, whereas 90s are RHY

Xantia intercooler is full width so not easily seen, but you can't miss that pipe! C5 110 has a side mounted intercooler.
