thats fine 80oC is cold, 90oC is the norm. but have a look on the gauge the marks on the gauge are 2.5oC steps, which is fuck all really, so it may look high at half way up the gauge but its only prob about 94oC
vaux then decided that starting the coolant gauge at 90oC on the corsa B was too high as people thought their engines were running cold because this is right at the start of the gauge, so vaux then decided to start the corsa C's gauge at 80oC i think which is cold
