I was told the radiator problem was an issue with production, and it is still unresolved for the older models, new car is apparently fine. I can't see why you couldn't just fit an aluminium competition custom radiator to overcome if that is the case?

Had my low mileage 22 Plus Four serviced at the factory earlier this year. They found a weep on the rad and changed it for the latest ones which I am told have fixed the problems. I was not charged for the radiator.

I've had no leaks on my 2023 car from new, 22k miles done. The only "leak" was a drip from a hose joint that a small tightening of the jubilee clip sorted. My guess is that in that time I have added less than a cupfull of coolant top-up. The car was at MMC last year for a paint bubble fix and they did a software update during that time. Also a tracking reset as one front tyre showed slight offset wear. A local garage reset it but I got MMC to do it anyway. First MOT next month. I don't expect problems BUT the handbrake might be one. It's never been brilliant even after dealer and factory checks. It had a new cable fitted at the same time as the paint bubble job.

I wouldn’t say that my P6 handbrake is “up to the job”, but MMC took it to their favoured MOT garage and it passed, perhaps they have an ‘“understanding”.

Rarely use the P6 handbrake with it being auto - never thought about it.
Thought about my first P4 though with the “fly off” version when I pulled up to a post box on a hill and jumped out to post a letter with the hand brake on, only to find it was creeping its way back down the hill.
Managed to jump in vintage Le Mans style and save the day!

But it must pass the MOT auto or not

Ref; the handbrake issues, I wonder if it is like my 2016 ARP4, which were all known to have a handbrake issue when pulled on normally, but someone discovered if the footbrake was applied first, then the handbrake lever pulled right up, it would lock the back wheels satisfactorily.
It is all about technique...........

I believe it requires a changed quadrant to fix it
