Title: 10W 40 Semi Synthetic Oil
Post by: A380 Elite on 06 October 2007, 10:42:38: Went to my local VX dealer this morning to by some parts.

Long story short, i miss understood gentelman said. :-[

By 4 for the price 3, me thinking, 3 x 3ltr's + 1ltr of oil free, ok i'll have that. :)

Turns out, the special is, by 4 x 5ltr's for the price of 3, cost inc. VAT £30.75. :D

Devide by 4 x 5ltrs = £7.69 per 5 ltr.

Or £8.69 + £1.53 = £10.22 with T/card.
Normal price, without using a T/card £21.80 + VAT = £25.62 per 5 ltr.

It could be cheaper? ( his computer is not working) and i dont think he charged me for 5ltrs of red Antifreeze. :y

Note.
Trade card used or in my case, my Autobahn Stormers trade card.

Part no 93165216

Hope this helps, good luck.

May be thinking of something else...

Also, make sure they understand that you want 4x5 litres. They gave me a 20 litre drum in a box on a trolley and I didn't look what was in the box until I'd got it to the car ::) .. by which time the parts department were out to lunch >:(

Didn't cost much different, it's just much more convenient in 5l containers.

James, just sent you mail.

This made me happy, but I was not happy to find that the dealer will no longer accept my ABS card saying that it is not set up. >:( I know for a fact that it was set up and the parts block said that I had to phone on Monday and speak with the parts manager. So, instead of getting 4 5L containers, I left with 2 and the 2 oil filters that I wanted. I did get 15% off the filters though, but still not as cheap as the last time. :'(
