A thermostat for £98.05 - are they having a laugh!?

I think they have quoted for the wrong part.

032121110C is the part number. I can see it is about £20ish

You will need a new rubber O-Ring too, but not knowing your registration I cant tell you which youll need

Its likely to be 032121119J

It's in the housing where the top radiator pipe leads to on the engine side. Two bolts :)

It's located inside the removable piece where the bottom radiator hose goes into.
