Hi guys, would a nissens 1.6 radiator be up to the job of cooling a 205 gti6 ?? Or is the Bbm shortened rad the way to go ? Big price difference that's all..

Any advice would be appreciated Smile

Cheers for the reply guys, yeah I have seen the Nissesns one for £62.09 which pretty reasonable I imagine ?, not sure if the BBM £350 one is really necessary for me..

if the rest of your cooling system is in order it should be fine

I run a 205 Nissens one on mine and it's perfectly suitable.

    your 205 doesn't move so your opinion is devoid of substance
