HDI Radiator Bottom Hose - down in price

Post by DavidLewis »

Hi All,

Thanks to everyone for contributing to such a great forum - I've learned such a lot over the five years I've been reading it! And now I've registered especially to let you know that I've just ordered a new radiator bottom hose for my W-reg HDI 110 (part number 1351.Z9) from the main dealer, priced at "only" £21.27+VAT. Although this is still a ridiculous price for a hose, it's a lot cheaper than the £70-odd that people have reported paying in the past. And its cheaper than most of the used ones on eBay!

So, now that Summer is coming up, if anyone has a bottom hose that's on its way out I think now would be a good time to buy a new one!

Just what I need, should this price apply to all dealers?

Well, it is about as good as first posts get, so I'll let you off. Welcome :)
