After the recent leaks I've experienced, and reading past posts, I thought I'd go down the aluminium radiator route.
While waiting for delivery I've removed the existing plastic unit.
Quite scary when I saw cracks in hose connectors that I've been driving around with, top and bottom (displayed)
did not appear very tight and loosened easily with a stubby screwdriver but both had cracks.
