Had stone go through my A1 TFSI Lower Radiator and it cost over £600 to replace Ouch, this is a lot for a small car isnt it?
One expensive flying stone !!!

Not really, the A1 isn't a cheap car, a small car but not cheap. Why assume small means cheap?

Just a thought , seeing as there are so many common parts , is this rad shared with cars in the Seat , VW and Skoda Stables and therefor with a different badge much cheaper , might even just be badged as VAG .!,

Just remembered when I had a Sharan years ago , used to shop around for service bits between the three options VW , Seat and Ford , for instance wiper blades , seat most expensive followed by VW and they were beaten by Ford (Galaxy) who were around £8 cheaper than the others , self same Bosch blades as the OEM on the car just in a Motorcraft box !
