Have a look in your Handbook! I'm sure it says 50:50 mix! That's what I used anyway.

50% may be recommended, 30% is widely used elsewhere. But, antifreeze lubricates your coolant system so less antifreeze is less lubrication. So, I'd stick to 50% for the extra couple of quid it will cost.

Antifreeze clicky by people who get really cold..
