Well, close. Depends how you drive to start with - can't say I look at the 'stock' temperature guage very often, but escaping from London (very slow 
) in this weather it probably takes nearly 20 minutes to get up to 70C, and most of that's the struggle up to 35ish. Once hot, though, it stays hot for, ooo, well, after 2 hours the teperature's barely dropped at all - probably down to high 60s? Certainly takes very little time to get up to temperature again, anyway.
