Can anyone identify this radiator?
T0MMY - 23/5/15 at 01:56 PM

Got a hole in my radiator (see my other thread) and wanting to price up a replacement before I attempt a repair.

It's on a 5PW R1 engined Vortx, does anyone recognise this radiator so I can get a like for like replacement to save having to mess around with the mounting points?

Rough measurements are 480mm wide, core being 400mm or so, 325mm tall and about 30mm thick. Mounting holes are 70mm from top and bottom and 180mm apart ctc. The code printed on it (pictured) just refers to the type of plastic, it's not a model number. Any help much appreciated.

Its 2015..

If you Google polo Ali rad you'll get the picture, they were fairly standard across the range forms long time..

All the kit manufacturers will be Abe to help if you get stuck.

Amiright?

Looks about right, just check the measurements against yours and you should be good to go.

Alternatively give Chris at MNR a ring and I'm sure he will sort you out.

Found it for £32 delivered on Ebay so just went ahead and ordered. I did drop Chris an email but I guess he wouldn't get back to me 'til next week and I need to get the car sorted for its MOT asap.

My confusion was because they list the rads by the width of the core not the overall width but I think I've got the right one. Thanks for your help
