New Sifab radiator and K&N airfilter on 2016 4/4
Picked up the car yesterday after the original plastic radiator had been replaced.

That looks really good. Why MMC use an item like a plastic rad with a short life amazes me. I know £s saving but it gives a poor reputation whilst they hike prices.

It looks very good. I am wondering if the shield over the air filter blocks the cold air coming in through the louvres. The windscreen creates a high pressure zone at the rear end of the bonnet.

I like that Winglad, it really does tidy up the engine bay.
I'm on the waiting list for the Air Induction Kit to be installed. Its still currently in production / design stage for the 1.6 Sigma.

Hi all!
Thanks for the positive feedback; I also like the results very much.
The shield above the K&N inhibits water from the louvres dripping down into the filter.

Looks good.
Keep a close eye on things for a while until it all settles down.

Hi Winglad,
Did your old radiator break & how old was it?
I'm based in "Ost Hessen", as you know our nearest Morgan "handler" is in Kirchheim/Neckar, I just wondered where you got the work carried out???
