I eventually found 1, £60 for the part which isn’t bad
unfortunately for me I never have any luck what so ever and especially with this car, it’s not just the thermostat on it’s own that’s knackered the bigger issue is the straight plastic pipe at the back that connects to the thermostat has a...
Yeah I have had a look on eBay also, But non specify the exact model the thermostat is for. I have contacted at least 4 different sellers and they all don’t have the size for the MK1 200THP

Ok thanks for the input, Im having a hard time thinking that the valves are dirty or the seals are away as the car and the engine bay is immaculate, the car only just hit 40,000 miles and I’m the 2nd owner it hasn’t had a tough life. The garage would of spotted that also at this point I reckon...
Sorry I do apologise, I see it’s now in the drivetrain section I just couldn’t find after I posted it it so I thought it either wasn’t submitted properly or it was being deleted.

Thank you for the advice, I’m just seeing this again now. I put the car into the garage the mechanic says it’s the VVT system or wiring. I have made a new post detailing it all.
Thanks
