Euro Car Parts are selling Fuchs Titan Supersyn SL 5W40 in 25 litre drums for £86. That's 5 full oil changes (4.5l a time) and another 2.5l for top-ups for about £15.50 a time. Superb oil, sold and well respected by Scoobynet's own Oilman (Opie Oils).

When Simon at Opie learned that I was using Millers CFS he sent me a discrete PM informing me that it is an old oil and well below the spec of similarly priced newer offerings from the likes of Fuchs, Silkolene and Motul. I must say that after changing it last week for the Fuchs stuff it is running noticeably smoother.
