The Temp Gauge on my 1985 1.9 Petrol van works fine sometimes, but sometimes swings violently into overheat (to the right). Engine doesnt seem to actually be running hot (eg Fan doesnt kick in, and red light doesnt blink) when so indicated, and i've driven OK for hundreds of miles with it like this....

Just got my newly-acquired 1985 T25 Leisuredrive home from Cumbria, having bought on eBay (!). Runs great, looks good for year but is suffering from some minor seam rust at the rear wheel arch area. Has anyone found a good workshop to fix this in the Reading/Wokingham area please? Cheers Ian
