i think they all get hot at times, mine certainly does. i wouldnt worry about it to much but just keep your eye on it mate.
also just check the rad make sure your not losing coolant.

If ur worried do a sniff test to check weather the headgasket has gone if its getting exhaust gases into the cooling system this will cause it to get hotter than normal

So long as the fans cycle on and off don't worry, at least you'll have a good heater!!
