Hello I've have recently got a RR Classic 3.9 V8 and I think it running too hot the needle stays put around town but when you get out or lift the bonnet it smells hot and the top hose is solid on a motorway run the needle stedily climbs right up to the red. I've put a new thermostat in no change. The heater never blows hot air it just gets tepid could that be part of the issue. Any advise would be greatfully recived. Cheers

Check for air locks. Look at the water pump. Back flush the system. Rad, heater matrix etc.
