I have a 200tdi. I took mine off over the summer here in France and drove down to the south of France without a fan. The engine only went towards the red when I was going up a long hill in 35 degrees. I fitted a Kenlow electric fan as the engine never warmed up in the winter even though I fitted thermostat etc. You can get cheaper electric fans for a quarter of the price of a Kenlow. I have now run mine here in France and I have only heard the fan come on once in two years.

I think the diff here is that the peeps that don't have a fan know it doesn't cause a problem, or if so, very rarely.
The peeps that have a fan, don't want to take the risk.

I've got to admit, it is rare.
Must've ran mine for 6+ months without it before I needed it on Happy Valley in the height of summer.
I say the word 'summer' in the loosest term possible...
