Can anyone recommend a decent coolant/antifreeze?
My coolant level is quit low and I have decided to drain it and replace it.
many thanks

The site is Here. I think it's G48. There is a feature on their site to insert your index number to get the appropriate result.  I don't know where Pegasus got his from but round here its £26 for 5Ltrs !!.  Huh

Yep, it's G48. Bought it last summer. Went to a proper motor factor, not the neighbourhood car parts shop (and def not hfords). In fact they supply shops and garages around here. 3 yrs ago it only cost £12 for 5 litres.
 
Best to phone around I suppose.

Thanks everyone, I have managed to find a gararge in the next street to me selling for £20 which is quite good as the cheapest I can find it is on ebay for £15 but they want £5.99 postage.
Thanks
