Thanks for that I need some oil.  :y

The price of engine oil dosn't seem have gone down despite the decline in the price of crude.  :-\

Pretty sure last time round this was £10 with trade, :-\ , would anyone hesitate to chuck this stuff into most modern engines,Ford , Toyota and the like ? surely they are all made to a near standard 05/30 spec?

I think some Halfords oils are prone to mayo (made by Castrol perhaps).
