Default Where can I buy Silkolene oil in the North East ?

Anyone know where I can buy some Silkolene engine oil in the North East of England. Middlesbro area to be exact.

Just your normal stuff pro 5-40 or whatever it is.

Need it pretty quick as car in for it's 30,000m service next week.


Cheers,
Graeme.

I second this recommendation. I used them for the first time Monday morning, and got my oil this morning at 8 15!!
Less than 24 hr delivery to boot. lol.

Is Silkolene good for Scoobs then?

If so, what's good about it?

Thanks.

Alan Mac,

There are many different oils that are good for Scoob's. Silkolene is just one of them.

I'm sure you are aware of the great oil debate on here (do a search on "oil"), always causes a bit of a stir. I'm pleasantly suprised this thread didn't turn into a slanging match !!

I just want to try Silkolene for a change, as I've only used Mobil 1 in the past. There's one thing I am sure of - I won't be able to tell the difference at all. I won't get any more power, more or less engine wear, etc. It's just my choice this time.

Cheers,
Graeme.

p.s. - Alyn, yes it was me you spoke to, thanks for the info.
