Default Big Discounts this weekend at Opie Oils

It's bank holiday time again... and as you know, bank holidays bring big discounts at Opie Oils!

This weekend, we're running another offer which will bag you 15% - 30% off RRP on pretty much everything we sell.

Just spend £30 or more in a single transaction before midnight on Tuesday 26th May 2009 and use offer code CARHOLIDAY at the checkout.

The offer code will get you 15% off, so combine with your club forum discount of 10% - 15% to get substantial savings. Orders under £30 will still qualify for your club forum discount - remember to sign in to see your discounted prices.

What's on Offer?

Everything we sell, with the exception of Splitfire coilpacks, Brembo brake discs, pads & upgrade kits!

So, take your pick... we've oils and lubricants from Castrol, Mobil, Fuchs, Motul, Amsoil, Redline, Silkolene plus our brand new range from Gulf, including the all new Gulf Competition range for race, track and rally - exclusively online from Opie Oils. Denso Iridium performance spark plugs and our ever-popular Trico Neoform beam blades are also included in the offer.

Or if car detailing is more your thing, choose from the Meguiars, Bilt Hamber and Muc-off ranges for all you'll need to get your pride and joy looking beautiful.

Don't forget we're always happy to offer advice if you're unsure as to what oil or lubricant you need.

Cheers

Guy and the Opie Oils Team

Unless oil temps are excessive (130degc +) then go for a good ester based synthetic such as the Silkolene Pro S, Motul 300v and the Gulf Competition Competiton engine oils | Race engine oils

For the diff the Silkolene Syn5 75w-90 Silkolene SILKTRAN SYN 5 75W-90 Fully Synthetic Gear Oil

Coolant I would go with the Motul Inugel Optimal Coolant

Cheers

Is there any reason the motul oil comes in 2 or 4 litres containers? Makes it more expensive to buy as the Impreza takes 5 litres.

Thats the reason, you have to buy an odd amount, usually more than you need.

More sales for Motul = more proffit.

Same reason castrol do most of their oils in 4ltr, when the average sump size is just over 4ltr forcing you to buy an expensive 1ltr.

Cheers
