Just for completeness, I had a heater hose that hadn’t clipped home properly and had come adrift, that explained the low coolant warning 😂

Fixed and given the car a good run, temperature according to the OBD dongle is stable between 89-91 degrees, guessing it’s a 90 degree stat. Other than losing £20 of coolant and getting soaked today, I’m happy.
