Gary; you can see the condenser through the grille and the slats at the bottom of the bumper moulding. I think that with the engine undertray removed you can get a view from below but don't quote me on that!

What are the implications of an over-pressured system ? There is plenty of cold air at the moment.

The system is only over-pressurised if the high pressure trinary switch disengages the compressor. An increase in fan speed is normal if, for example, you return to a car with an uncomfortably hot interior which the air con. is trying to cool to, say, 19 degrees. I'd also expect it to happen with an ambient temperature in the upper twenties when the engine is hot and the car stationary or slow moving.
You'll know what the conditions were when you tested it. I'd recommend keeping it under observation. After a few minutes' running with 'LO' temperature and recirculation selected, the air temperature out of the centre vents should be approximately 4 degrees C.
