Hi, looking for some opinions and, more pertinently, user experiences.
Has anybody changed their car's water/antifreeze coolant over to waterless coolant.
Do you think there is a point in time where this would be a pointless exercise due to corrosion or can it still be beneficial in say a 6 year old car on 75000 miles?
All comments welcome. Thanks.

What's prompted you to think you need waterless coolant and what vehicle/use is this for?

In reality, it's more of a rhetorical question and I am asking out of curiosity more than anything else.
It was prompted by watching an old repeat of Wheeler Dealers (I know, I know) where they refurbished an old Triumph TR6.
I was thinking that there must come a point where the cooling system of an older car gets to the point when it would be a waste of time.
Maybe I'm wrong, hence my original question.

Thanks for the link. Very interesting and scary at the same time.
They mentioned the very episode of WD (with the TR6) that I referred to earlier.
Just glad my original question was just my inquisitive brain.
