I'd be getting a new car TBH, But yeah I know what you mean. So would I if it was a litre every 500 miles or something like that. But it's not even that cheap now anyway, and it's certainly not going in any of my cars or equipment.

Mannol isn't a 'medium quality oil' far from it IMO

I wouldn't use it if it were free. People need to understand you get what you pay for, although I also agree there's probably not much difference in performance between a good quality synthetic and a very expensive version of the same thing. It's consistently burnt in my engines, even my...

ATE, Textar or Genuine manufacturer OEM.

Two stroke will zinc foul your injectors.

No, I mean uncorrupted, he's not being paid, I think he's very genuine. (you cheeky 😀)
