One of my boys has a tidy looking 307Petrol Hatch 1.6 2003 model. It has about 300,000K's on the clock.
It recently had a new clutch but now he says though he can't see anything dripping that the coolant needs increasing amounts of topping up.
Instantly I suspect the head gasket as you do.
I'm thinking an engine graft would be preferable to doing the headgasket depending on cost and availability.
It is too good in the rest of it to trash, aircon works great and with good running gear it runs nicely and handles well.
Any thoughts either way? If engine graft does anyone know of a good engine going for a fair price?
