As the title says, Castrol Magnatec 5W/30 A1 4 Litres for £16.48 @ Tesco in store (half price). This is about as cheap as you can get it I think - not sure how long the offer will last.Previously:

That is very cheap....it costs nearly 50 euros for 4 litres over here.
I use 5W/30 Castrol Edge which is even more expensive I miss Tesco
At that price it's worth buying about 20 litres and keeping them in the garage 2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE AutoBuckingham Blue 2007 Golf GT DSG
