I'm planning to run (for the first time with this car)some "hot laps" in a couple of weeks during a local track day. It is required that I have a coolant overflow tank fitted. I could cobble something up I guess but wondered if anyone in BCFland had come across a suitable generic tank that might easily bolt on and not look too bad.
Cheers
