Anyone know where I can get a new radiator please, they seem to be a bit thin on the ground.

It's for a '97/'98 Mini

Thanks

I've tried Minispares and all the usual Mini places - they don't have any in stock

i assume its a mpi with a front mounted rad as its a 97/98 not a very later spi, if so you will be lucky to get em.

whays actually wrong with yours?

ebay's always worth looking out for, and they usually go for around £70-ish


I think I remember someone saying that there's another Rover that had the same/similar radiator?

If yours is a late spi then what about this one? CLICK

If it's an mpi then you've lost me :erm:

I fitted the above to my SPi the other week and its marvelous! :grin:

if you're lucky, and it's just an SPI - fit any boggo mini radiator, you dont really NEED the fan sensor that's on the bottom. Just short the wires out with a switch mounted somewhere to turn the fan on when you want it

Yes it is an MPI - and it's leaking from the matrix
