Cheap Oil at Asda (Castrol GTX)

S@njay · 24 Dec 2012 at 11:30

Just a heads up that Asda are selling Castrol GTX for £12 for 4 litres.

They only have a couple of grades at this price, but I am sure someone will need some.

EDIT: Wait, GTX is only semi-synth isn't it?

I think our right as I don't think it will be right for my ford engine which needs fully synthetic.

Yes, it's not as good a deal as the previous offers on Magnatec, but it's not a bad price.

ECP are having a sale on oil and filters at the moment, which is annoying as I just bought some, I could have moved up to a nicer brand for the same amount or saved £4!

The 10W-40 is very good for that price.

I'm sure GTX used to come in 5L containers though?

Been 4l as long as I can remember.

About 3years ago it changed (in the UK anyway)

Yeah rather irritating in 4L when I need 4.6L and feel ripped off for a 1L bottle.
