I have a period British plate mounted under the bumper in the stock plate
location and my car never has had a cooling problem. The cooling system is
stock. Probably the British plate acts like a spoiler and thats why the
Rootes engineers thought the cooling system worked.

One thing MOST modern cars have is a chin spoiler, creating a low
pressure area behind the spoiler right at the bottom of the engine
bay. This would tend to suck out a lot of the hot air that has passed
through the radiator. It also tends to inhibit the recirculation
issue while stopped.
Keep on Tigering!
