P&G seems to have it below 1/4 at 80kph max and -5c temps. Fuel mileage results not especially good but overall cold temps and snow have put a real kicking into any results.

A ScanGauge will show engine coolant temp digitally; I think UltraGauge will also show it. With that information, you can increase your grill blocking and other engine bay sealing safely. You need more information than what you get from a simple needle gauge.
You may need an engine bay belly pan or hood insulation to get engine temperature up where you want it.
