oil as good as Motul to buy retail?
 
Would like to change my oil this weekend and have not stocked up on cars normal tipple of Motul 15/50. I have been putting this in my turbo 2000 for 5 years every 3-5k. I can only get to the normal shops so Motul is off the cards. What else could i use that's good. I tried Mobil one a while back and it seemed to eat it.

I know im selling the car but i still dont want crap going in it. My baby likes the good stuff.:D

Castrol gtx i used or edge

If it's the Motul 15w-50 300V, there isn't a lot availabe that is as good or close to as good. The Fuchs Pro R, Millers CFS, Redline and Gulf Competition are what I'd consider on a par to the 300V. Castrol Edge is a step below in quality terms as is Mobil 1.

Cheers

buy the cheapest fully synthetic your local shop as to offer, use this for say 1k and change back to Motul consider it a through engine flush.
