    Hi, I've just got the Blade '2007'. Can anyone tell me the general parameters for the coolant temperature, in normal road work. Mine seems to vary from 80C to 105C, Is this typical. ........ Thanks in advance, Mike.

    PS... The other question I should have asked, what temp does the fan kick in?

    Pretty similar to my RR7. Thermostat opens at about 80, fan kicks in at 103.

    Yeah seems about normal. Mine generally sits at around 80 - 85 until I get stuck in traffic and then it goes up into the 90s and then over 100 where the fan kicks in.

    Well Thanks for the very quick help chaps, I have just tested mine on tick-over in the garage 83c Stat opened, 96c fan initiated. I would say these figures correlate pretty well with your findings so I'm happy with the cooling side of things.

    Thanks,
    Mike.
