No chance, 80 is low really.

On a absolutly freezing day you might see 80 on there after a 15min trip, on a day like today when it was 23c then 90 and above you'd expect.

Infact mine was bang on 90 today driving back from work

Haha! I said day to day, was higher today being hot and all, just fitted a new rad though & fresh coolant so everything's working as it should!

On motorways & that it's upto 102 if I keep on the loud pedal! :afro:
