its a sealed unit!
Hi there take it for a run and when you get home leave it running and see if the gauge rises then, a previous owner may well have took the center out of the thermostat. I have seen this before as a safegaurd after hgf repairto keep the engine cooler but all it does is keep the engine on choke longer and the engine never gets to its running temp hence using more fuel, if you get a new stat get the two O rings aswell.

better still - go for a remote thermostat, the revised coolant tank and an EWP.
Yeah - when I got back I switched off, left it for 10 minutes and then started it again. Left it idling for a few mins and the temp gauge did rise (only slightly) and some warm air came out of the blowers - drove it again for a few minutes and then gauge back to the bottom and cold air again.

I guess that you have checked that there isn't a air lock in the heater matrix
crack open the bleed valve in the hose and let any air out.
