'Sudden' radiator failure (if this is the case, as you describe it as 'gone bang') can usually be attributed to one of two reasons, the first could be because you have no antifreeze in the system and the coolant has frozen and burst the rad, the other reason can be sudden pressurization of the radiator where it 'blows' due to head gasket failure between one of the waterways and a cylinder.

i don't think the fitment is the same?

1.1,1.4and 1.6 has smaller radiator.

if you don't have anti-freezer in your coolant, you might crack the cylinder head as well
