Alright michaelelise,

Dont blame you for wanting one cheaper, new ones are well expensive from the main dealer.
If you want a quality one for a cheap price then this website is the one you need for all Ford Car Parts (http://www.whatpart.co.uk/parts-30-ford.html)

Hope this helps!!

Try www.buypartsby.co.uk - they are currently showing radiators for Scorpio Cossie 94 onwards for £12 + VAT ?

Part number is NIS62012 which is probably a Nissens brand - can that price be right ???

Nissens are a top quality radiator manufacturer !

Either the price is wrong or they have a load of them to clear.

Michael,

I and some others have fitted 16v or 12v radiator in place of the 24v one (Which I personally believe has a production fault)

The other rads are smaller but are a straight swap, the only other thing you need to do is either blank off the small third hose from the header tank to the top of the 24v radiator or replace the header tank with one from a 16v which only has the two hoses.

These other radiators are a LOT cheaper, even new ones.

I've been running my 24v with a 16v rad for over 4 years now with no problems and havent heard of any issues from anyone else who has done it.

PLEASE NO ONE USE THE SITE MENTIONED ABOVE UNTIL WE CAN VERIFY IT IS NOT A SCAM!

filling in the parts request form is normal for these type of sites,

HOWEVER it then asks you to activate the search by texting or calling a 07099 number..

As far as i can make out these 07099 numbers are used in scams..
