Gone now.

£10 for 5L of Magnatec? It's about £10 for 1L of that at the local BP Garage

pretty much all vauxhalls (all post '06 - and thcker oil is probs better for pre-1985ish engines) run 10w/40.

you can put 15w/40 in if the engine is high milage or a little noisy, but the 10w/40 part synth is the one to go for...

just for people intending to ask...
