Wife's car takes an age to get heat.
Vans blowing well by the time I hit the main roads about 1.5 miles. And is hot within 3
Best heater I've had is the Jag,
V8s make quite alot of heat

Doesn't need to be a new one, the FBH was fitted from new on the D3 and FFRR from 2003 ish onwards, it's not remotely switchable but you can buy an add on that allows you to remotely turn on the FBH and warm up the coolant. Have done the mod on my D3
RAV4? My 1.3 Yaris gets warm surprisingly quickly tbh, doesn't really feel like it needs anything more.
A mate had one of the early XJ’s with the old straight 6 in. Quickest heater I’ve ever seen, literally turn the key, off with the handbrake & it was starting to blow warm as you drove away.Best heater I've had is the Jag,

Best £240 I've spent on a car. Our main reason was 3 snapped glow plugs but to put the key in and see the the needle rise to the middle is great. We have a heated screen anyway but to have the car warm immediately is brilliant.
The other big benefit is the module is also a GPS tracker.
My V70 warms up so quick it starts defrosting in a few minutes.
Do you have a link?
I did think about the derv heaters but there £80-100 and mines petrol so thought this would be better
it’s only my commuter, but wouldn’t mind a bit more heat quicker
Mine is the Altox as well, quite happy with it
@armalites do you use the same forum name on Disco 3.com?
Noticed a few posts on there by @R-D-R as well
I do only look on there occasionally these days though. Normally it's see what sort of argument has started over the the latest political news
