Just to feedback. Answer found:

I e.mailed the manufacturer and they said the card was a 16bit one.

Also I can confirm that setting the BIOS \ PCMCIA slot to "PCIC" and
running a card is the best way of finding out if it is 32bit or not. 

If it runs in PCIC then it can only be 16bit and is not cardbus 32bit.
