Default service bargain

I am due for a service soon and was shopping around to get the best deal on oil,filter sump washer and found import car parts. They have a deal on milers xxs 10w 40 oil (5 litres) genuine subaru oil filter and sump washer for only 26 quid .
I was wondering if anyone can tell me if milers xxs is a good oil or not as the price seems too good to be true.
