How about getting your old one recored? It normally only costs about£100.

Find a place local and take it in yourself. You should be able to get it done within 24 hours (sometimes same day). I used arrow radiators in bristol for the last one I needed.

not these days it dunt now the price of copper has gone up, bloke who i used to use in stoke normally charged no more than £80 even for big jag rads, last one i got a price for was over £200
 
Try your local SERCK intertruck, they wanted 115 + VAT to recore my rad and its not a normal LR rad, it has a double core.
 
the cooling system is desigend to cool in extreme desert envirmonents while standing still driving a genny or something. I know of several engines that used to have oil coolers that now don't and are fine. As long as you aint going to the desert etc driving machinery while not moving. :)
