Unless my eye sight has gone 'awol' or the company are about to pull my pants down......check these prices on Shell Helix AF-L 5w-30w. I was doing a 'reckie' for Opie oils as the RR is due a service next June [I know, I know, but if the price is right I'll stock up now] & happened to fall upon this from Mytyres.

5 litre cans for £28.86 EACH inc VAT & delivery [based on 4 cans].
Alternatively, 2 cans work out at £33.76 each inc vat & delivery

Either it's a 'one off wonderful deal' or the biggest scam ever, only thing I can see that's slightly different is the 'german' wording on the front.
Anyone convince me NOT to buy these?

Well

They've got aUK phone and address and if you pay be credit card you should have the usual protections. And it appears the oil meets the spec Ford WSS-M2C 934-B.

Good spot  Cheers

Giga tyres which by looking at their page is a carbon copy of Mytyres so one assumes they're the same company, have the oil a few pennies less than Mytyres

Still a no-brainer bargain........I've ordered 4 x 5ltr cans!

Several of us members bought from them last year when Greg (GGDR) spotted a similar offer.
We were all very satisfied with the deal and delivery was very prompt.

Well, DPD pulled up today with one very heavy box, 4 x 5ltr Helix AF-L as per my previous post.
The only noticeable difference being............it's all in German.
Only slight worrying thing is, bottom right hand corner on the back says 'made is Spain'.
Now, have I got genuine Shell Helix or a licensed copy?

If you're concerned a question to Shell's help line should either set your mind at rest or !!!
