Hi

How easy is it to take out and replace the windscreen bottle as mine leaks like a sieve, no water stays in it at all.

Remove the front grille and you can see the water bottle quiet clearly from there.
I assume it should be relatively simple to remove.

If you want a cheap fix then you can weld the plastic. The TVR water bottle is from a Ford IIRC and available. I once had to save one from a classic car that was no longer available. Get a bit of metal (I used an old knife) and heat red hot on the cooker.

This melts the plastic and you can seal the holes.
