Have to say that Spain is pretty rubbish compared to the UK with regards to things automotive. The good weather here and pretty decent roads are more than offset by lack of quality specialist independent garages, just about no car accessory shops, nothing like E Bay (UK) here, strict no modding rules in the ITV, high used car prices, high insurance premiums etc etc.
Latest complaint is I can't find any supplier for Porsche approved engine oil? Anyone know of someone in Southern Spain or an online company perhaps?

Just got some sent down through moresupplements on ebay UK, postage was 9.70 GBP for 5L to Andalucía, don't think that would differ too much if you required more.

Thanks for the reply. Thought there was nobody left in this section for a bit wink

Could not find your supplier but I have been looking at Fuchs Titan Supersyn on E Bay UK. I will most likely buy this one. It is crazy the amount of stuff I buy from the UK due to it not existing here. Helping keep courier company profits up.

This is the stuff I use in my Boxster 987

Harlech in Bolton reckon it is superior to Mobil1 in older water-cooled engines. Tends to reduce bore scoring and IMS bearing failures.

Thanks for that. The IMS bearing is a big consideration as my 986 is still on the original one.
