Hello,

I need new rad for wather and oil. Was thinking buying the alloy mostlly becouse it looks nice in engine bay. I found a lot of rads on ebay but now I dont know what to buy. Whats the diferencoe betwin doble row and single row? Should i buy the campus rad and oil cooler? Im looking for the chipest thing as the car is oe. I noticed that i need to drive slowlly uphill othervise it could overheat.

Thanks,
M

Best bet would be to grab a single core alloy one off the likes of eBay if it's just a standard car. I would recommend a new OE rad but they don't make them anymore and NOS items demand a premium now.

How about speaking to Mike @ gt turbo spares or cgb and getting a good second hand radiator, good clean/flush out and be ready to fit and still oe ;)

They're pretty expensive. When you can buy a brand new alloy one for under £100 it seems daft to stick a 2nd hand one on. Well to me anyway!

Anyone have this rad? Is it any good?
