   as above, if its not overheating all the time then theres no probs, if you not driving theres no air ruhing through the radiator to cool it down, so the fan kicks in whe its starting to get hot to stop it overheating

   Saxo's run really hot anyways. As said, as long as the gauge stays around the half way mark you're kool
