Default Oil purchase best place?

As title all I need to purchase some 10-40,50 cfs millers

my usual source for over ten years has unfortunately shut shop thanks to current circumstances 😢

which is best place for price etc please


I found this one on eBay
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/362179906271

Any advice or links would be appreciated I do about 1000miles a year if that helps

Always found Opie Oils to be pretty competitive, and always had good service from them too.

JJC are a good company, quick delivery and you’ll get what you expect.

Same for Opie. Usually they’re doing 10% Or free delivery.

superb ebay it is 👍

just such a shame all the small local performance places are finding it hard to stay open and some shutting shop altogether 😢

my source did them lotus Elise’s up full on restorations to upgrading engines etc and was charging me £30 for 5litres every year I’m gonna miss him he was a top guy.

thanks for that bro much appreciated 👍👌

ive just bought the oil yesterday but wrong one ☹️ Heads up the **** at alder hey at the moment
lucky for me it was Phil from opie oils and advised to return so fingers crossed he’s got the 10-50 in stock as I don’t want a refund just the oil
customer service and postage & packing is bang on with opie oils as it was over 6years ago when I used them last
if he doesn’t have it in stock I’ll take the refund and go with the above link thanks again pal for your input 👍
