Why on Earth would you pay 10 quid for a filter no better than say, a Blueprint item at a fiver?

I've just personally usually used genuine Subaru ones. I've had a pm off someone with one for sale. The name above rings a bell, Shaun, thanks.

I couldn't find any Subaru black filters at the time my oil change was due, so used an ADL blueprint filter and has been fine.(I think Scoobyparts do them)...............

I may end up buying a blueprint one as the source has sold them now.

I may see if Moz still has some. Davros rings a bell too?

Don't spoil my thread you big brute, you.

I don't mind admitting I'm skint until payday, maybe it's something I should be ashamed of? Afterall I have my house to pay for, bills, the car etc like many others.

The right people have the PM's Steven And three legitmate examples are more than enough for admin. No sniping - it's called telling the truth and yes, people indeed do talk, I've found out some quite useful information. I'll leave it at that.

Peace out

And thanks for the advice chaps
