1. "it's not needed" - I thought you were from Somerset? Thus it must get cold regularly...
2. Stock 300 heaters are excellent, I even think the one in my 343 was even better than the 360's
3. Having the inlet at the bulkhead is ridiculous
Agreed and to be fair Kaos your 16v not being on the road as a Daily how can you comment???

because the drive to MOT, the car was nice and toasty. then again, , i agree about the air filter on the bulk head, not being nice, this is only my view
Nice to see you doing work on it that I didn't have the time or money to do. 10/10
TBH the heaters in my 340 are immense!! Event though the pannel is jammed in No 1 they still give out plenty of heat. Hmmmm better get that sorted for the winter.

Tbh the heater itself is fine. I have run my 16v with no blower for 18 months (so one winter) but the heater was still plumbed in, crank up the heater and as long as you are moving there is more than enough airflow to keep you toasty
