"Winter" Thermostat?

Hello folks,

Long story short - ancient Vauxhall tin top is running far too cold on my GF's daily commute - the thermostat is working - I replaced it last year and it\'s better than it was (was stuck open.)

Does anyone know where there\'s a list of thermostat specs with switching points that I can have a look at?

Cheers

TC
