I'm at 33 bottles now, it's become a bit obsessive
I'm whacking a full litre in every time I fill up ? It seems rude not to ?
I'll tell you what the engine sounds like a sewing machine, there's no ticking injectors or rattly noises, it sounds luverly,

I have not yet found a Tesco selling below £5.80 is this the north / south divide or have I just not spent as long as some, searching for a bargain? Perhaps I should have driven to Coventry (the very long way) today rather than take the train. 2005, TDV6 S, Auto, 190k miles, owned from new, V8 Brake Upgrade, Nancom Evo, RLD protector, BAS EGR blanking & Remap, separate ATF cooler, changing all the fluids ahead of time.

I feel my resistance crumbling… I though I was mad with 26 bottles but clearly I have some serious competition!Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948

It started off with a couple, then I bought X4 then X6 and before I knew it I had consumed 2 bottles and then bought another 10 to day !
15 for 10 litres,
The thing is, it will break me when I have to pay £5 for for one litre so I'm like a fat kid in a sweet shop now every time I get within sniffing distance of a Tesco filling station,Only dead fish go with the Flow !

dont think you will be classed as a 2sO oil addict unless you buy it in 1 litre bottles
buying in barrels doesn't count
you have to have the bottles all lined up on a shelf, trying to decide which one to take next Transit! 2019
