Toad 0 Posted October 23, 2006 That's pretty poor! When mine popped I bought one from a radiator supplier at Bursledon (Southampton) and it was in the next day. It wasn't OE, but I asked a lot of people in the trade and they all swore by him, it was much better quality than the GSF and Euro car parts, clobber. I don't remember the name of the company, however. But I expect there will be someone local to you who'll get you up and running quickly. BTW your sig makes you look like the p!ssed bloke on the Mitchel and Webb comedy program, Sir Digby something, when he's running around humming his theme tune.

davidwort 0 Posted October 23, 2006 sounds like it is on back order from Germany, I'd have thought someone would have one in stock somewhere, maybe worth while going for the 16v specific one from Euro car parts, 86 quid with free delivery, they have them in stock, not the same as the 1.6 carb rads that sell for about 50 quid, they fit but aren't as good at cooling, that's what GSF sell.
