Huge thanks for the tip, used a ratchet socket key with an extender for disassembling all of the hose clips, went really well!
Starting to reassemble slowly (after office work hours so a bit slow), for now it is going well I haven't broke anything yet but I was amazed about the simplicity of some of the stuff, the radiator/expansion tank unit is literally held on the car with big rubber grommets and two bolts only, once the hoses are removed it takes literally thirty seconds to get out of the car.
Grateful to start working on a somewhat older/simpler car as I have the feeling more recent cars do not have huge room in the engine bay to work with

@8b A little peeve of mine, do not use a screwdriver on hose clips, 7mm or 3ba nut runner
This tool set, with lifetime guarantee Halfords is great value
