Saw the mention of fleabay aluminium rads on here a while back, has anyone had any experience of buying one, now down to £160 although the one advertised says 94 to 99, just wondered as its getting closer to plastic rad costs and thinking of a new rad soonish?

This guy knows his rads @Mark Piercy 
His intercooler is size of my engine, his rads are moved about to fit. Think he's gone for Nissens now?

I did look at an all alloy unit but after a few youtube vids, i got a bit worried about having it turn up in france and being a pile aluminium spatter and tat!!!
So went for a known and recommended make instead.

Probably not all the rads are duff, just didn't fancy the grief and extra time wasted either sending one back and waiting for a refund or replacement. I would have preferred one though.
