On ebay expensive in my opinion, but they have 10 for a 2.0 litre and others for 1.3, 1.4 and 1.6 131s.

Hi Dave

I paid ?117.50 for mine to be totally rebuilt back 1998. It was made by a company called Essex radiators. I had it made with extra 3 rows to keep it cooler Roll Eyes. I gave them my old one for a template and think they used only the top and bottom,? replaced the rest. Those since I have had the car in storage it is in need of rebuilding again !!? Cry

I? also added a switch so I could manually turn on the fan when in traffic!! And I modified the cooling system and removed the thermostat , which helped it to run at lower temperature when needed. + helped where I had modified the engine to.? Roll Eyes? Cool

I was quoted $550 (Aust.) the other day to get a radiator recored. Even with freight to OZ, that's a lot cheaper than $550!

He quoted me 180gbp for freight to Hobart Shocked I assume that's for a private chartered jet! I'll have to get back to him and ask for a quote for sea freight.

guys, new alu-plastic radiator for lada is 45e new and it's exactly the same as for 131. why waste money? whole lada rear wheel drive range (riva, nova, estate, 2101, 2102, 2103, 2104...07) uses the same radiator

Can you get these at that price? I'd still have the problem of freight to Australia!

Hobart, Tasmania, 7052, Australia.

I've currently got the wider twin fan radiator in the car. I don't actually need another radiator, but if I can source a narrower unit it gives me 200mm beside the radiator to fit an intercooler for a supercharger.

I think Theo recently purchased a radiator for his Sport - from Yagmur I think. Be interesting to see what he paid and whether he thinks it's any good Wink which I'm sure it will be as Yagmur appears to have a good reputation Cool. Probably fairly good value too....
