It's just a cheap brand of oil, just like you get cheap brand of beans, coke etc.

So, has anyone actually ran this oil before?
I understand the buy cheap buy twice motive, but often i feel the companies can be very misleading selling the oils.

I would be interested to know what the cheap oil does differantly to the more expensive oils.
Ive gone and bought my usual mobil tub, but would be interested to find out none the less.

I know that i once put some fairly expensive Opie oils part synthetic multigrade in my old VTR and the stuff stayed golden for like 3-4000 miles. It had no detergent agent in it all as far as i could see, followed by some halfords oil that cost half the price that began to get darker almost instantly.

Im spending a fair bit of money on oil and have a feeling that, because i use the car fairly gently, warm it up, and change it every 3-5000miles, or about once every 2/3months these long life, very expensive oils may not be that necessary.

I would like someone to prove that they are, but its hard to find hard fact that nots just opinion.

It's not a proper synthetic, use the search function or google for the difference between ester synthetic and cracked synthetic. I've run this stuff before, its cheaper from a large car parts Chain. Wouldn't run it in the clio normally but I'm using it just now to flush the junk out before my ester oil change.
