Middlebridge Radaitors are totally unique to the car and the Reliant SE6 Rad's are not a suitable cheap alternative. The MB radaitor was specially developed at Ford's test centre to ensure there were no overheating issues with the car and the new 2.9 EFI engine. (Ford insisted on this testing at their facility prior to production).

Two owners have had their rads manufactured in Alloy, some have just had the rad reconditioned and others have gone the full recon' route and have had uprated free flow cores fitted to improve coolant flow. (This is the route I went in 2005 and have had no problems since).

Hop this helps
