Opie oils?

Is this stuff hard to find?

I'm sure I have a discount code for this place in or around 10% I think

Why that particular brand?

Had a quick google and came to opie oils myself, Colm. £30 + £16 shipping. Not too bad

@Gary - seems to be the concensus on Saab forums that on an older or higher mileage 9-5 it is the oil of choice

Any Shell wholesale oil distributor, get 20L for not much more than the cost of 5L in a motor factors, and have enough for four oil changes:D

'01 Saab 9-5 2.0l LPT - 78k miles

Just serviced a few months ago with 5W30 Castrol, but will need the oil after I get the sump dropped at some stage. PCV has just been updated too. So once the sump is clean the engine will live forever with timely oil changes with the appropriate oil. Or so they tell me
