The petrol engines will normally run at 95-105C depending on the type of driving/weather conditions, etc. Often the faster you go, the lower the temperature. Shuffling in the city centre will send it up and the cooling fan will be heard (assuming it works as it should). Anything between 75 and 115C is considered 'normal' by the dash gauge so not much help. Engines at or near 115C are overheating and should be allowed to cool and checked (coolant, etc).
