Coolant on top of engine

I have found coolant blown across top of the engine in the 2003 Ford Courier I have just bought. I presume the radiator is knackered. Is this an ongoing problem and are there any other issues with this model?

It’s not likely to be an ongoing problem once you repair or replace the radiator, assuming that is the problem. I would check for other issues, like a blown radiator hose or clamp. There are no other major issues with the Courier that you need to be concerned with, but you do need to understand that it is an old vehicle and old vehicles can break down.
