dav you got a definate problem there. Make sure that when you top up, use a little bit of antifreeze too. What engine is it? Should stay around the 90 mark for average driving and rise to 95 with hard driving, the fan should kick in around the 97 mark, but in this weather it shouldnt really get that hot.
