What is the best Radiator?
« on: 31 July 2014, 13:41 »
Hi
 
My VR has recently been leaking water because of 2 big holes at the front.
 
I need a replacement but not sure which one to get plus i dont really wanna spend much on a rad.

Valeo are an o.e vw supplier but a Nissens is equal quality and nearly half the price (£60 from myself)
