Is it worth replacing my 88 thermostat with an 82 or 74 if my engine is getting too hot?

An engine runs at its best around 88 degrees, my point is that if the car is overheating then there is an issue. Having the thermostat open sooner will only mask it.

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

Drift in in a jag xjf, show them pictures of your house on an island, on your iphone 8 prototype, and tell them "suck on that!"

Apologies to anyone who has been calling the office today, we have been flat out busy so at times the phone has had to go through to answer machine. So many orders going out today that the courier had to send an empty van. We will start working through the answer machine messages shortly. Have a great weekend
