Can't do any harm to keep an eye on things though - must be a lot that have gone where owner only opens bonnet when something goes wrong.
Always worth bearing in mind that there are other sources of coolant loss - heater valve, water pump, thermostat & inlet manifold gasket (mine went a few weeks ago and a quick look could have led you to suspect hgf)
I looked after my car, never thrashed it and serviced it regularly and mine went at 42K miles.

The saloon is a good choice, the extreme spoiler will finish it off nicely. I got one for mine and love it!

I had some bad and good news today
I went to put the deposit on the saloon, but was told someone came in the morning and put a deposit down on it Goddamn!!

But on the plus side, I popped down to the garage where the other ZS and asked for more details, mainly just the cambelt and found out it had a service, new head gasket and cambelt fitted two weeks ago So its not all doom and gloom I guess

I pick it up on thursday, to say I'm excited is an understatement
