Hi all

I've just got home after a frustrating evening in East London waiting for a breakdown truck after my radiator gave up the ghost in sub-zero temperatures. The car is now safely parked up but I would like some help from your goodselves if poss re the following:

1) How much am I looking at for a replacement rad?

2) Are stainless steel versions available?

3) Can people recommend Clovertech in East London (as they appear to be the closest specialist to me)?

Thanks and drive safely in this weather!

Patrick

Radiators on GTV and Spider are damaged by the quantity of salt on the UK roads in winter. Mine was really poorly/corroded when I bought my 7 years old Spider and needed replacing. The original one is a Valeo cooper unit which is now available for the aftermarket in aluminium so a lot more resistant. You should be able to source this part from a specialist such as Alfashop in Norwich or a car part distributor in London. You're probably looking at around £250 fitted.

Hi Sinbis

Thanks very much for your response....that's another £250 to add to the repair bills! All worth it though!

Thanks again.
