I use Morris oil 75-90 in my diffs and gearbox - came well recommended from the guy that makes the big tooth straight cut box.

Not used it in the engine though - as I get Mobil 1 at £20 for 4 litres, so wouldn't try anything else.

What's the prices like?

At that price you can't go wrong - as I mentioned, the brand are well recommended for their gear box oils, and I'm sure their engine stuff is the same.

To be honest, unless you were Martoon, or Rod Tarry, I doubt you'd really notice any discernable difference between Mobil, Castrol, Silkolene or Morris oil...

The grade and type (ie not 0-40 for older Cossies, not mineral oil etc) are prob the most important factors, then after that the price!

I like my Mobil cos it's cheap, I'm sure you'll be fine on the Morris (not Morrisons ) oil!
