Sensor is behind the front bumper... they often go. Easy change!

could also be the joint on the back of the MFD, they are common to go and cause this problem.
a bit of soldering solves it.

No offence but I don't think we are the fools in this case. £80 to replace a temperature sensor

Are you sure it wasnt the temp gague on the clocks that went (next to your speedo). Matt's asking about the one in the middle next to the date
EDIT: and yes Matt mine was the same. Bought the sensor from greenhouse vauxhall on Clough street for about £6 and it was fixed  - should be able to see the sensor in the middle behind the front bumper
