Just won this fo �12... mine looks exactly like this... (as i suspect do a lot of yours)...

What's the best coating for it guys ?

Won't see any rain/wet etc unless very unlucky... but want it as hard wearing as possible.

Soak it in a bucket of "wonder wheels" overnight, and then get it powder-coated, or paint it with smooth black Hammerite. Works wonders!
