Joe,

  I have the same problem re temp gauge always reading cool.  I asked my 
local britcar mechanic and he suggested that the thermostat has been taken 
apart at some point and modified so that coolant *always* flows.  
Apparently this was seen as a way to overcome overheating problems since 
the cars were driven summer only.  I never got around to verifying this so 
it's just a shot in the dark for you.

Mike.
