Castrol Syntrax Driveline then would be my next choice if Millers or Motul comp oils weren't available............

Ah I see. If they can't deliver it in time for next week then Cliffords in Portslade are a better bet than Halfords

AS Performance delivery service is very very good,

if you order goods they are normally with you the next day or the next, even though they are based up north..

only because you called about an hour too late to catch the courier..............

generally speaking if you call before 2.30ish then we will package to leave that evening on a "next day" delivery...........
