Used it in my 99my for about 3years with 3-4k mile changes with no problems at all. As you say, it's good value at around £17 for 4ltrs.

If Mr Valvoline sends me some to run for a while I'll check it out Torment. Failing that, I'll spend my money on the stuff I know I can trust, being either Motul or Mobil
