Hello Stella, Yes, I seem to recall they were always a bit lukewarm, but at least you're a bit further south than some of us, however, I know it can be cold in that part of the world too
Seriously, I'm sure you've tried everything to get some heat from it; do other 'Series' owners suffer from the same problem?
You are right that the Fastback heater is really good with instant temp changes & good flow of very warm air when required
Cheers. G.

am tempted to ask... what heater.. but note you have a fastback..so perhaps you do, indeed, have a heater that works..

Mmmm, looks a bit tatty: matrix could be shot too. There are better ones than this around. I personally would give it a miss, even thought it is only £22. G.

Heater matrix here

Probably worth a try for £10 + postage.

The control valves are often on eBay, none at the moment typically! Might be worth a call to Speedy spares, they don't list one but do carry items that are not on the list.

As the valve has corroded to powder and they usually cause more stress removing them anyway, I'm looking for a heater box for a Fastback. I could put it back together without a heater but would prefer to do it a bit properly.

Anyone?
