Ended up flogging it for £1100..got myself a mk1 focus

The mk1 focus gets up to temp fine..but the heaters are not that warm..think I'll give the thermostat a change on this one as well

Why would you change the stat if its getting up to temp? Lack of warm air could be all number of things?

Sometimes that radweld junk blokes up heater cores.

Could simply be an airlock.

I need a new thermostat for my 1.6 golf. Where's best to acquire this part? Cheers.
