I've had a look about to see what other cars have been suffering problems like we find on the Cinq.
I know that you can buy not only a 82 degree thermo for the R5GT but also a 75degree one which is meant for extrem cars see here http://www.bbperformancetuning.co.uk/Products/Default.asp?type=dept&DepartmentID=881 I actully have in my pocession a 75 one from my 5 days unused but not compatable with the cinq (i think) and a low temp rad switch which I may use on my Cinq.
Its also something that is sold off the shelf for VX220's as well http://www.courtenaysport.co.uk/default.htm?page=73 see here for a good little explenation as to what it does diff from standard.
theres also loads of stuff on MGB's and MINI's running 80/84/88 and no thermo's at all if you look but not really compatable with our cars as they don't run ECU's.

On reading the Courtenay site the thermo's they sell are from hotter climate markets, I wonder if there's such a thermo made for the Cinq. Fiat seem to be well known in Africa (UNO got strong following out there) anyone got any ideas if the Cinq/Sei was sold there or anywhere else hot?
