Ive realized lately that my cars temperature is always below the middle by 1 or 2 cm on the cold side. is that normal?

Thanks

It's normal to have it on the cool side of the mid point. Gives you more time to respond when it starts creeping up. You didn't mention whether you owned the car for a long time. If you notice that the temperature takes a long time to rise to normal then you may be without a thermostat. When you first start the car and start driving the temperature should climb to the normal level rapidly and then stay just below the mid point.
