New Owner - Looking for advice?

I have recently got a 5 year old (39000m) S2 Elise and all has been well...until now. I think that the plastic end cap on my radiator is leaking and guess I will need a new one. I was wondering if anyone knew how much this would be likely to cost and also if anyone could recommend any good garages to do the work around Edinburgh. I know there is Murray Motors but I just wondered if there might be some decent alternatives.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Martin

he's based 5 mins from the end of the EDI by-pass I think... not really sure of the name of the place
I think his garage is near IKEA/ COSTCO?? No doubt someone will jump in and correct me!

Ali at SLS tours about Scotalnd from time to time too, so, not matter where you are based; he's you best bet

....or do it yourself?
It's actually pretty straightforward, and rather satisfying- with the front clam off it
looks like major surgery (impresses the neighbours/ better half no end
).
Btw, I'd go for one of the uprated all-aluminium jobs, as the tupperware originals are p*sh
Oh, and make sure it's not a hose leak first...

The lotus ones will keep letting go......Ali is your man.......if you can't do it yourself (and I can't!)
Howdy btw!
