Ok so it lashed i down all night tonight, so instead i've bought the fans I need to swap.
Since I got the radiator and fans from my mate's charged Xsara, built by a reputable trader, I found it strange someone had attached two blower fans to the back of the rad - not much good for me if i intend on spanking it around a track mid-summer (My Rover Turbo was always marginal on cooling capability so i'm naturally wary). Just another example of chequebook modifying gone wrong I suspect. I like to run the fans flat out on the cool-down lap, and before if i'm really pressing on - at the end of the day they'll be drawing air over a radiator, two oil coolers and an intercooler.
Just ordered two Spal VA11-AP7/C57-As with free fitting kits to fit to the back of the rad. Hopefully can raise some of the cost of them flogging the blowers that are on the car.
