My last service was done by Capital cars. They use Castrol TWS motorsport, 7L @ €20 a Litre = 140.

My order:

Motul 300V Competition 15w-50 x 20 Litres. Only the best for my baby from now on

Also, i'm gonna sort me some gearbox and diff oil while we're in the groove!

Callin' Opieoils....come in, Simon

Simon, yea we'll finalise things on friday i reckon.

Robbie, I dont mind paying for the order on my big-debt card... but mind you if there is no shows on the payment, like topazman has been experiencing, I dont think i'll be very a flexible friend! Angry

I don't think the order needs to be rushed. We should try and cater for all members who are interested while at the same time reducing the overall cost to each member. I presume it'll be a couple of weeks between placing the order and delivery.

I'm happy to finalise my order now and wait for delivery if it means a few more members get sorted aswell as a better overall price.

I think it might be a good idea to let this run for another week!

Martin; this isn't the way I normally do business; I work in sales and if I treated my customers like that I'd be out of business a long time ago.  Unfortunately in this instance I'm in a situation where I feel I've been burned, and I think the people responsible should be put out in the open so that another unsuspecting individual acting in good faith could avoid a similar scenario.

I can only say that I'm sorry if you feel I'm acting wrongly.

I'd agree with Robbie on this. Unless anyone is in a desperate hurry, couldn't we leave it open until say the end of May? Let more ppl sort out their funds etc. or anyone who doesn't visit the site 15 times a day (is there such a person?!) find out about the group order in the 1st place.

WRT Gearbox/diff oil, how often does this need replacing and what is recommended?

I just ordered a load of bits from the stealers so I'll have to wait for the next group buy anyway.

*WHINE* This is my party and I can do what I want.... BOOOHOOO

I feel that next week is acceptable... I really want my oil before i go to france! It will probably be the last week in may before it all gets distributed anyhow.

Well, I'll probably be 'round to collect it as soon as it arrives!
Might be able to arrange a mini meet?
