nope- the auto model has a 2nd built in oil cooler in the radiator for the gearbox.

Bugger. I was on my way back from the breakers (100 mile round trip) when it happened. Thought mine would fit.
Is there anyway the second cooler can be removed and fitted onto the 850 one?

They're only around £100-120 IIRC. Bit of a pain to swap out though, and you should change the o-rings and securing clips on the transmission cooler pipes - where they join the radiator. Theres a good video by Robert DIY on youtube -
