As long as what you use meets the standards and you change it accordingly then it should be OK.
hi dave I also bought this oil at Halfords but the 502.00 and 505.00 is putting me off as I thought it has to be 507.00.

That's why I put a Belfast post code into the link and it says they deliver free to N.I.

it may mean they wont do free delivery yo NI, but may charge, which might make the cost prohibitive but you could ask them?

I clicked the postage link at the top of the page and it shows FREE POSTAGE to a Belfast postcode...


If you put the same postcode into Brian's link you get a message stating Doesn't post to Northern Ireland
