Can anyone advise me on the differences between NTC6168 radiator for a 2.5TD and ESR78 for a 2.5 N/Asp.
I need a radiator for my 2.5TD and wonder if different ones can be easily modified to fit.
All advice appreciated,
Thanks !

Cheers for that oil dripper !
I need a radiator for my 2.5td 110 and asked johncraddocksurplus if the ESR78 radiator they have on ebay (which looks the same as mine and has the oil cooler) could be made to fit. The reply was "no".

Frog Island were massively cheaper than any of my local suppliers when I needed a RR rad. About 1/3 of nearest quote and included delivery!

Note - it is in reasonable nick, but comes without frame, and without oil-cooler adaptors as I needed them for my conversion. Other than that, you are welcome to it for the cost of petrol to meet you say, Perth/Kinross area.
Any other TD parts you need?

Many, many thanks for your offer but I'm afraid I don't have transport at the moment. Don't really need any other parts but thanks again anyway !
I am going to take a chance on bunging in a bottle of K-seal (out of desperation rather than curiousity) and we'll see if it works or not.
Watch this space !
