Need to replace mine as it is starting to bulge at the bottom.
Where's the best place to get replacements from? I'm in East Kent near Canterbury.
Should I be looking at doing the water pump as well?
Any advice appreciated

Have a look on euro car parts, they have a few.
Whilst you are in the area you might as well change water pump, thermostat, belt tensioner and belt. The bottom radiator hose is probably near shot too if the bottom of the radiator is bulging.
All these can cause serious engine overheating if they fail and are really easy to change.

Yeah hoses can be a pain, undo metal locking clip and get wiggling whilst pulling.!
