Thank you that I've seen, but 200 + vat + high shipping is too expensive.

Re: Aluminum cooling water expansion tank.
The original header tanks are all steel. Anyone who has an aluminium tank will have got it from Lotusbits and it is likely to be a one-time replacement for a rusted out original tank.
Good luck with your search, but I think you'll find more hens' teeth and unicorn droppings.

Re: Aluminum cooling water expansion tank.
Okay, then I have to spend the money if it is the only new part, or I will build myself a tank made of aluminum.
Which covers fit there?
Is there an alternative cover for the cooling water tank?
