    I bought castrol gtx today. 10W 40. It's apparently designed specifically for cars over 75000 miles.

    It cost 22.99 for 4litres (gallon).

    4 litre fully syntethic Castrol Edge 0W-30, 45 euro from Ledwiths in Drogheda.

    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    €23 for Maxol 10w40 ss. After years of paying a fortune for Castrol Magnatec I can now safely say it's not worth it.
