This car does not like me ! First the rats eat the TBar hose running into the Radiator ( Ah life in the country ) , then the header tank goes ( over rated pressure release valve ) and now the #$%^&% Radiator has a small hole in the upper right corner which is spraying coolant everywhere and therefore requires a litre top up each week!

Replacement is the only option I am told as there are no second hand ones and no re coring (sp) is available for the L322 ???? So $1400 with thermostat is the quote. Good / Bad or is there an alternative ( ie re coring )?? Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks

P.S I am a LR tragic an love this car , but its testing my loyalty !

Give this mob a ring, Radiators.com PTY LTD.. I just bought a P38a Thor Rad for $270 from them plus $30 tracked insured shipping, over $900 in Perth.

There are also a few sellers on e-bay UK selling for 150 pounds so that would probably work out around A$400 shipped
