Thought it was Lotus - Scooby96's comments still hold

(BTW, I've been using carlube 15W 50 (summer) and 5W 40 (winter) synth oil for the past year in my MY96 Impreza)

[Now the spelling may make sense ]

Has anybody got any comments and opinions on this oil,it is fully synthetic and is available in 5/40 and 10/50 types.
The reason for asking is Mobil Motorsport is getting harder to find and this stuff is only £18 for 5 ltrs.I believe TVR recommend using it.

Cheers

I have used the carlube 15W50 fully synthetic motor sport in mine for the last year & (touching big bit of wood)have not had any problems. Mike.
