Wht oil are you running? (20w50, 10w40, 30)
Do you have an oil cooler? Have you tried a different sending unit?

Are your oil coolers on a thermostat? in parrallel or in series . if your engine is not highly tuned it should not get up anywere near 120 in british weather, it could be the wrong grade of oil as the post above said

2 oilcoolers shouldnt be doing 100-120'c. I have 2 oilcoolers too, from the bas thermostat to the front oilcooler from a merc, then to a setrab cooler with twin fan and back to the engine, 90'c all day, if i push hard max 105'c. I use 20/50 oil and ambient temp at 33'c avg. 2666 T4. Pressure starts at 5bar, warms up to 2bar on idle.
