Just bought 5 litres, top quality mineral oil for the old girl as Mobil one 15/50w is no longer made.
Supposed to be the best for our engines.

£23.10 using CHILL30 code

Happy Christmas guys

Thanks for the tip.
Just reserved 2 gallons which will be used in the spring on the Griff. Looks like a good oil and a very good price.
Cheers, Stew.

Thanks for that, good advice, good tipple for the new engine. Ordered, and they are less than 2 miles from me.
I use a Valvoline racing oil in my Honda CBR (revs up to 18,000, scary!) as do the local track day men.
