It needs repairing.

At the time of me sat in it getting cold it didn't need any repairs,
now is another matter.

Let me guess - engine problems? Bearings or rings? Caused by the
engine never getting properly warm because the thermostat was defective?


Nope the engine is fine. Diesels just don't generate vast amounts of waste
heat at idle.

You are not kidding :-(

I bought a diesel Rover 45 when they went bust. For a 3 1/5 mile drive
to or from our house, I am freezing waiting for the heater to come on
for the last 100 yards of the journey in winter.
