No mine was deffo a 1.2 one. Or this brazilian rad i burst had exactally the same mounts, and the pipes went in the same places.

A brand new 1.2 rad from my local motor factors, and my water temps are fine :)

Looking at MattB's car, the diesel rads seem to be longer and thinner. Not sure on the advantages. If you are looking to spend £100 on a radiator why don't you just get a specifc 2.0 Corsa radiator?

I got mine couple of weeks ago from there...1.4 16v rad which was thicker than the original.

Mine was £45 delivered and thats usually next day :thumbs:

I ran my car for a year on one without a fan. Then I put a hole in it by mistake, so I got anew one and a Corsa C diesel fan, works a treat. Never goes above 90 on the dash :)
