Every six months on my two miggies. Use genuine filters and Vx semi-synthetic 10-40.(Trade Card)

Trouble is I do very little miles at the moment so neither is doing more than 200 - 300 miles in the six months!!

Very aware that lack of use is probably worse than high annual miles.

You want to see the faces at my MOT station when they find that the mileage has hardly increased year on year !!

Vauxhall main dealers :) (most, but not all, offer 'Tradeclub')

You just need to join Autobahnstormers (£20 per year) and the membership card will be accepted for TC :y

You do get a nice barrel you can turn into a barbecue or smoker when you eventually get through it. ;D
