it depends on the service type your car is set on, did you buy the car new ?, you should have got a bottle with the car if so

ps your dealer will sell you the right stuff

I got a 1litre bottle of Castrol 5-30 I think (Longlife). It came in a fitted leatherette bag that velcros into the boot.

£15 per litre at the dealer, if you have a costco nearby then you can get 3x 1L bottles for £30 I think it was.

I seem to remember it's £19.71inc VAT for 3x1litre bottles at Costco.

I must remember to pick some up if it's that cheap compared to stealer prices.
