Bargain oil at Homebase

robbie99

Lads, Homebase are selling Castrol EDGE oil at €6.48 a litre. (£4.98 in UK)

This oil is the top of the range fully synthetic stuff which normally retails at over €20 a litre. Homebase previously had it at €20.38. Halfords have it now at €18.99 (down from €23.49). Their four litre bottle of 0W30 is going for €54.99

The 0W30 Turbo Diesel oil (which I've just bought) is BMW LL-04, VW 502 00/ 505 00, MB 229.31/MB229.51, API SM/CF ACEA A3/B3/B4, C3.

I'm due an oil change in 3 weeks time and BMW's estimate priced 6 litres of SLX oil (it's the same as EDGE oil, just different branding exclusive to dealers) at over €90. I've saved myself €55 on the oil service due.

Get some while they're still on the shelves!

It's €55 for 4 litres of it in Halfords so a great bargain, particularly if your car takes slightly over the 4 litres.

Seemed like a permanent price reduction rather than being on sale,heres fingers crossed

Is that fully or semi sympathetic oil?

Bump, this is still available and today and yesterday they are doing 15% off everything so even cheaper again, very good price if your changing your oil or planning to soon.
