I am sure that they are still available from places like genuine part search...
I saw them listed last year.
Unless James has bought all their stock again.

I am actually looking for one. They haven't been available on GPS the whole time I've been looking anyway.
The part number is 90448876 by the way.

There is a small dent in mine right around the rim where the cap screws on. It means that it doesn't seal properly and the coolant is never fully pressurised.

As a a temporary fix, get hold of some PTFE tape James and wrap it around the thread, should hold out for a while until you find a replacement.

I've been trawling for a couple of hours and these things seem incredibly hard to get.
- Lots of adverts but none in stock
I've managed to find a site with used tanks at half the price (about £40 + pp), there's 2 available , so that works out well.
In case you're wondering, it's the same part & number for saab.
