If I am taking the radiator out, and I cannot undo the bottom hose clip, am I just as well to undo the other end of the hose and pull the radiator out with the hose?

    Is your heater shutting off properly?

    The heater is fitted before the thermostat. The thermostat might allow the water to hit 80 degrees before opening to allow the water to cool down in the radiator. If the water is at 60 degrees, its not circulating through the radiator but it will be going through the heater, if you're driving with the window open then the heater may be acting like a mini radiator and not allowing your engine to get up to temp.
    That was a long post...

    Someone sneakily installed a turbo, perhaps?

That annoying moment of getting your Mini Sport delivery after 2 weeks of waiting and realising you ordered the wrong parts.
