Probably about 90 or a bit less.

The Vauxhall engines of that age are notorious for the thermostats failing in the open position, so the engine overcools.

As long as it stays off the red, that should be OK.

The outside temperature will drop soon, and you may see the gauge lower then.

The coolant level is OK isn't it?
