Depending on how this group buy had gone, and it's been amazing so far, then I was planning on seeing if anyone in the thou section would be interested... We'll wait and see if they fit ok first!!  ;)

All this "smelling" going on, are you sure they're not made from brightly coloured liquorice?  :b

Hehe..... very powerful colour blue... Saw the red hoses and they look slower to me for some reason but still good.

Pretty sure halfords would have the right stuff. It'll no doubt tell you in the haynes manual what stuff you need.
 
Glad that most have arrived safely and all before lunch time too! haha! I'm sure you'll all agree that SFS has been amazing for service so far!
 
I've passed on thanks from everyone here to the team at SFS.
 
Thank you all for your support to get this sorted so quickly and It's been a pleasure for me to do it  8)

Just 50/50 coolant/water.
I much prefer premixed but if you wanna mix it yourself do it properly and use distilled water.
Halfords do have it but i've no doubt petrol garages will have it too.

While you lot have your coolant systems drained i would be inclined to do a proper rad flush as well while you're at it!
