Not anymore the 10% discount has expired. If you have a trade card it's cheaper still, £8 I believe.

I managed to pre-order it on Christmas eve when it was £9 a bottle. Can't complain at that price. Need to do an oil change soon, so dead handy.

If it says 10w40 on the front and is less than £10, I'd use it.

Picked some up for my Thumper.

Hopefully if won't cause any clutch slip.

As my bike only takes 2 litres, it means I get two oil changes for a tenner. Wink

I bet people still buy them. Years ago when I worked at a shop I'd tell them "if you buy the bigger bottle it's cheaper mind" "no its ok I don't need that much" "......ok Confused "

I spoke to the checkout girl about this any even though she pointed out to punters that 4L was cheaper people were still buying the 2L bottles. Confused

Picked mine up today, 8 litres of 10/40 semi, will do for both the bike and car. The checkout girl was not bad either.
