Think it's a freight rover item or range rover.

Most just have the existing item recored (around £120)

Standard 1980s Range Rover item, cost me about £110 outright. Only thing to watch is they don't generally come with the hole for the otter switch.

As others have said it Land / Range Rover based, but you'll need to check the pipe configurations, and also the mounting brackets will probably be different.

No need to worry about the otter switch Mike, it is fitted but the twin Kenlowes run off the seperate thermostat and adjustable pot.

Word of warning when removing the top rad hose - the Kenlowe stat is held in there using a small black rubber "saddle" DON'T lose it the hose will leak without it

Re-core is the best route otherwise you may end up doing unneccessary welding. There will be a Serk matterson (can't remember the name) local to you.

Had mine record and the otter 'ole sealed up arf,arf,arf..... because it was an @rse to get at when it leaked.

But I did fit a a separate in line fan temp sensor and a fan override. Might even wire up the the sensor one day.......
