Cheap Castrol Magnatec
« on: 07 June 2012, 17:16 »
Halfords have got an offer on at the moment for Magnatec, I've just bought a few bottles for the Mini, @ £17.50 for 4L of fully synthetic BMW LL-01 approved oil, its a bargain.

Not sure if it goes in a dub, but its cheap, so who cares  :laugh:

I got some from Euro Car Parts last weekend for 16.99 iirc. Good deal and just what me and my motor needed.
