Hi guys,I've just bought a '96 24v and I need a radiator.I've looked on Ebay and they are £125 !!! Can anybody suggest a good Alfa breaker or does anyone on here have one for sale ?
I had one of these 164s a couple of years ago and loved it,however after being quoted £640 for a new clutch I sold it on.
Glad to be back in the Alfa family again.

I have a used one. It was fine when it was on the alfa but its been outside for a couple of years. Twenty quid, collect or can ship it??

I'm in Chesterfield, Derbyshire.

radiator..

Hi mate,is it in good condition ? My car is a manual,is your rad from the manual ? I presume theres a difference between that and the auto ?
Cheers

car was a manual, rad was pretty tidy and didn't leak at the time. Have it, try it and if ok, then give me £20 quid for it??

cheers mate..

I'm down in London,would you be able to send it ? My number is 07747314289.If you txt me your address I'll send you the money for the postage.I think it would cost about £10-£12,I've posted a few similar size/weight things lately and that seems to be about the average price.
Thanks.

I dont know how long you intend keeping the car but if it was me I'd stick a NEW one in.
The life of a 166 is around 5 years +or - 3.Not sure if its failure is mileage related or not....mines were 116k and 86k.

The rad still holds water,however,it looks very shabby.The vanes seem to be disintegrating,it's all just falling apart.
