I have never had a car with a pressurised expansion tank, they are just a regular moulded polyethelyne bottle with a flimsy screw on cap with an air hole in it. I have never had a car with with two engine cooling radiators either (one of mine is for aircon) - although I did have DRZ400SM with the engine cooling radiator split into two, one each side of engine.
So your cars don't have a Heating radiator behind the Bulkhead?
