Citigo Radiator Lifespan ??

[MKRB]

Just returned from getting a new MOT for my 2014 Citigo Black Edition with 68k on the clock. Speaking with the tester, he pointed out and showed me that at the bottom of the rad there was the start of corrosion, and he said that he knew these rad's can suffer from such and can let go all of a sudden. Quick scan on here and google i cant see much on this, has anyone had the bottom of their citigo rad go, and if so how old/how many miles ??

thanks

Hi Martyn, can you post a photo of the affected area?

I'd be surprised if a radiator didn't last at least 10 years, unless it suffers impact damage.
