Can anyone recommend a good radiator repair and rechroming service - preferably in the south of England ?

There is a very good radiator restorer in Cambridge. Anglia Radiators, Unit 4, Stanley Road, Cambridge CB5 8LB
Telephone 01223 314444 . They have done lots of Lagonda radiators, including my 16/80 one which I am very pleased with.

I can also recommend a polisher/plater who has done lots of Lagonda radiator surrounds. Again, I am very pleased with his work. Anyone who wants his contact details, send me a private message.

Hi Folks,

I have just picked up two 16/80 radiator shells from the polisher. Both have been beautifully restored and re-plated. They cost several hunderd pounds each to bring them to this condition. Also bear in mind that an M45 radiator has 18 slats and at about £25.00 each that's another £450!

The person who restored them is called Tim Hannam, with a web site http://www.bronzecraft.co.uk/ or email hannam@totalise.co.uk

Tim restored and polished the shells and then sent them to an independent plater for the copper and chrome plating.

Tim also does lost-wax castings.

And I can recommend a chap in Holland who made a perfect new thermostat with arms to operate the slats on my radiator.
