If I spent the best part of £100k on a new car and the rad failed pretty much immediately I would be dischuffed. MMC know they fail and have done so over 2 years now, there is no excuse.
An ali Rad on my Roadster costs fitted £825 so probably fitted new not a lot more than the plastic one say £100. That isn't even an option for MMC on the order sheet. I guess BMW only guarantee the engine if the rad is used.
The radiators used in the Plus Six and the Plus Four are bespoke to Morgan, and also have the air/water radiator for the intercooler (which is inside the inlet manifold) built onto them too, as well as the aircon condenser and the oil cooler ....
