Hi Guys
All well there over the pond? 6 weeks ago my Plus Four was leaking from the radiator on the left side. I thought it would be a small issue with a radiator hose clip. The dealer came to pick her up and replaced the radiator. This morning the temperature gauge informed me that the coolant temperature was rising. I stopped and water was pouring out of the radiator this time on the right side. So I broke 2 radiators in 3200 miles. Am I the only one who is suffering from this problem?
Thanks chaps for your feedback!

Sorry to read this PiGo, it sounds like Simon is going to be busy soon..
Out of interest does it have the black plastic/alloy tanks like the Classic Morgans ? I got 4 years and 26,000 miles out of the plastic one in my 4/4 Sport but many others weren't so lucky.

Nothing yet on mine although that could be coz I’ve only done 300 miles due to lockdown restrictions... 🤬 Main thing I’m getting sorted is a crack in the windscreen that emerged via left hand pillar - we think the roof could be too tight so screen being replaced by MMC under warranty, once the new one arrives at the dealership.... Hope the radiator problem is a one off PiGo... HB

No idea actually the radiator sits quite deep in the cowl. The expansion tank is aluminium but the radiator looks like on top there is a black plastic cover.

Interesting, I hope they get you back on the road soon and that's the end of your radiator saga.
