Whoop whoop got some good news this morning - Matt was doing a few road tests with my scanaguage and noticed that it was running a bit hot, and then all of a sudden the temp would drop back down. EG from 96+C down to 88C -the usual up to temperature reading...
and took the termostat out, put in a pan and thermostat is not function as it should. New OE rover one due to be fitted tomorrow when it is collected along with a new waterpump (just on the safe side replacement)
Keeping fingers crossed and tring not to jinx things but the car might for once not have worse case scenario situation 
Going to then get a reading for the exhaust manifold pressure if the car holds coolant once more at full throttle high rpms and if it is within sensible levels EG +- a few PSI of boost then all is well and i can drive it how it ought to be driven again
