Just new here and looking for advice on a 2nd hand car i've bought a week ago. Looked on google and came across this place. So here go's!! .

temperature guage just stays in the middle or just below it. Is this normal as i've not seen it move past that position in the week ive had car. Not done much driving in it apart from school rum/shops. it seems to get up to that middle posistion very quickly and stay there. Is everything OK!??

^ edit^

just want to add that the heater is on low setting for cold air and has been since driving car just thought i'd mention this incase it was relevant.
