Default Need a radiator for my 99 classic UK spec

Hi all - my rad has got a tiny split so I'm in need of another - does anyone know of someplace I can get one, or of anyone on here that has one?

Hmmmmm....

Be careful, a simple job on any other car, could be a nightmare waiting to happen on an Impreza....

I change the oil and do all the servicing on my wifes car...

But I don't trust myself to change the oil on the Scooby!!!!!

ESB stock them.... But I've found lately Subaru are very cheap for some parts!!!!!!!!

It is an easy job.... But changing my rad cost me 4.5k (confirmed by independant source)

Massive airlock left in system and not filled up with anti-freeze

P.S. it wasn't me that did it.

So who did it then, fecked your engine which ended up costing you £4.5K and they gave you nothing... it must have been a friend then as any decent business would compensate you in some way...

If it were a business I'd let my mates know, so they knew to avoid them...

I certainly wouldn't recommend them to anyone...
