Worth checking out Gem.
They partner with a company doing Euro cover, but a good look round is best.

As said above, it is cheap and not so cheerful, no self test every tine you switch on ignition and importantly no delay built in so false alarms can be a pain. Always fit a Low Coolant Alarm and if funds allow a Temp Alarm.cobbdu1 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 01, 2019 8:18 amIs there anything wrong with this:

A point to note, if you fit just a Temp Alarm, it could happen that your coolant leaks away overnight, drive off in the morning and you could be a couple of miles down the road before the Temp Alarm goes off...very inconvenient..... if you had a LCA fitted it would sound as soon as the ignition is switched on whilst still at home.
Just saying.

That's exactly what mine did.
Pin hole appeared in the bleed pipe and dumped coolant overnight, alarm did what it's meant to.
