www.opieoils.co.uk currently have 4 x 4 litres of Castrol Edge Sport 10w/60 (replaced RS10w60) for £106 including delivery if you have a member discount code. (Just go to pistonheads, search for Opie and sign up for a member code).
Works out at £5.27 a litre .. pretty good!
I have no interest etc etc .. just a repeat customer - they have every other oil you can think of .. castrol EPX 80w-90 GL5 for diff £4.79 a litre and EPX 75w/80w GL5 for gearbox at £4.79 a litre.
These are sale prices for next few days!

Thanks Steve
I've joined pistonheads, then registered with Opie then they sent me a reg number but I have failed to log on with Opie, I'm being a bit thick at the mo!
I'll try later.

I think you need to register with Opie too .. but they ask for your unique membership number that they gave you.

OK done it!
10/60 Castrol on it's way.
I would have liked to have ordered an oil filter at the same time but I think I'll give SJS a call in the morning for that...to make sure I get a genuine Lotus one.
Thanks for the link Steve...I'll probably use them again if it works out.

My 32 litres of RS 10-60 arrived today, along with a box of gearbox and diff oil! Should keep me going for a couple of years

Does anyone know offhand what the fluid capacities are for the diff and gearbox?
