I have stuck 2 second hand radiators in the 406 in the past 6 months, both of which eventually started leaking. Now isn't the time to be filling the car up with water out of the kettle so im going to have to bite the bullet and buy a radiator......question is, where do I get one cheap?
thanks

Shop around your local factors or ebay shops for the best price.
The cheapest, good quality radiators around right now that people like me in the trade buy are called Nissens.
Valeo ones are surprisingly cheap these days as well.

Hey jasper, thanks for the reply.
My father has traders insurance and does a bit of car dealing.
Is there anywhere he can get one cheap via the trader?
thanks jasper

Hi Stefan,
Try looking on www.fastrads.co.uk, I ordered a rad for a Pajero at 2.00pm and it was delivered by 7.30am the next morning. A rad for my late 99 2.0 HDI is quoted at £63.50, I hope this is of help

The cheapest they can do me one for is 74 quid, plus im in northern ireland so they will probably charge for p&p aswell
Surely there must be cheaper out there.

There are a couple of Eurocarparts near Belfast, stick your Reg no in there and it will give you prices.
