Just had my Boxster serviced - an entry as follows appears on the invoice:
Mobil One Tri synthetic Formulation Engine Oil: £72.98
Plus the VAT of course.
Is this a record?

Oh, and while I am there I note that I also paid £21.15 for a "Pollen Filter". Which considering that I mainly use the Boxster on nice (i.e. non Scooby) days and therefore have the roof down could well have been a waste of money. Somehow I doubt that there would have been much pollen in it.

It might not be too far off actually.
The first car spares place I looked at on the Web prices 1 litre at£10.25, and 4 litres at £32.95
Of course the garage must get it at much better rates, but the Boxster needs 8.5 litres for a change I don't think that I would have saved that much by providing my own oil....
