Probably a link already on here somewhere but I'm finding this place pretty useful:- http://www.radicool.co.uk/ . I think they are pics taken from nissens website but you need to log in for that. Just follow the link to radiators and theres loads of info. Then go onto ebay and they have most of them for sale on there - aluminium to boot.

A great way to look up radiator sizes: click on this link. And go the the make and model you want to know the radiator size of. Click on "Radiateuren" and you'll see the dimensions (in millimeters) with the description of the radiator.

If there's a UK version of this automotive parts page, please tell!

A nice low and wide radiator from an Opel (Vauxhall) Corsa A 1.2, build somewhere around 1990:

The dimensions of the core are 53 X 23 X 3.2 cm (width X height X thick).

On widest points it is 60 X 25 cm's.

The inlet is on the top right corner in the pictures and it exits out of the side. The outlet is on the left bottom corner. These are roughly 32 mm (1 1/4 inch) connections, but it might be a little bit wider (maybe it's 33 mm).
The two "pins" sticking out of the bottom can easily be removed.

Because it is only 25 cm's high, it fits really nice into the nose of my 1303 without too much cutting.

It's probably too small for use as a primary cooler, but it might be a good choice for an additional cooler.
