Kev

I got mine on eBay from http://stores.ebay.co.uk/firstfrontera

I also know that the Fellows Speed Shop is about to start selling metal tanks, no idea what they are like or what they cost.

Main Stealer's sold out? I don't think they are expensive new. Just wander in with a print of the one you want

T3 tanks work fine too.

I recently found out that a Renault kangoo header tank does a good job too, I was sorting out the coolant circuit it a customers van and he had a Renault bottle under the lid of his splitty turbo, ej20t tidy size and good mounting points on it too

I picked up a few frontera expansion tanks when I lasted the scrap yard, if anybody is looking for a tank send me a PM. Wink

missed the replies on this post, as I said above a T3 tank works well. Take Griff up on his offer or pop to GSF if you want a brand spanker
