I agree about using genuine Vx stuff in some cases. But when it comes to oil..f*ck it!

just recently bought a 4-pack of 5l 10W40 GM semi-synth (buy 3 get 1 free) from local Vx dealer, £29.96 inc. VAT (£25.50 + VAT) on trade club which works out to £7.50 each ... which I thought was pretty good? Given that the normal retail price is £18.45 + VAT each  :o

well it's why I bought the extra 4-pack. Don't need it right now as I've got 2 x 5l bottles already but at that price I thought it was worth stocking up  :y
