Good cheap cooling
I have just has a Honda HR-V in for repair, the radiator looks ideal for a seven, better that Polo or Micra - and really cheap
Look!

good price
HR-V = Hormone Replacement Vehicle
If you are under 50 you aren't allowed to buy one.
Reminds me need to get new rad for the R75 -- not goint to be an easy one to fit.

hasn't that got a rad cap at the top?
Isn't that going to be a problem (if it isn't the highest point in the system).
Please put me straight if I have the wrong end of the stick (its often the case)

p.s. good site, also has polo rads for £26.92 (although might be the wrong flavour) and dimensions. Nice work.

Will be OK if you have a bleed point at the head.
Original Lotus Seven was like that.

Honda always used a little non presuised bottled connected to the rad over flow.

ah, so just a small bottle to allow it to overflow into, and i guess if the overflow bottle has the pipe connection at the bottom, i suppose it
doesn't matter if its the highest point in the system? i guess it wouldn't be too difficult to make a bracket for it

Honda bottle is neat --- even has a bolt on bracket. Any Rover 600 in the scrappies or an early 216 wil provide bottle braket and cap. the
