Hi Phil,
You say that the temperature increased from 95 to 110 at idle. Mine would struggle to reach 100 under those circumstances so my fan would never start running. I wonder whether Mr. Previous Owner put K-seal in the cooling system making it inefficient.

You haven't mentioned the cycling fan before. That would explain a lot if you have a 2 speed fan and not a 3 speed. Perhaps your car is one of the few to have a concealed resistor. Do you fancy taking the bumper off?

In the 'V'.
