Looks like the right stuff to me, but a bit pricey at £8.50 a litre! I got a 20lt drum of 'Exol' MA2 from 'Lubetech Oils' at £2.90 a litre.

Wow, that was a good price @2.90, you will always get a good price in bulk buying. The Castrol oil is good stuff but pricey, especially with oil changes under 3000 mile intervals. If your going for value, you wont get better value than Motul or westfield at 25-28 pound for 5 litres.

Wow, that was a good price @2.90 Just as well when most of it seems destined for the garage floor ! Probably lost over a litre through unsuccessful attempts to get the oil filter seal to do it's job.

Totally agree, if i could change any one thing, it would be the oil filter design, not done many oil changes where its been totally leak free on first attempt. In fact i put a smidge around the o ring before i bolt can into place, it seems to work for me.
