slybunda,

I am quite sure that Shell oils from Delti (German company) web-sites are GTL based, they have a lot of different versions of the sites in different countries. Since you are in the UK your version is probably: http://www.tyres-outlet.co.uk/cgi-bin/os...icle_disabled=1

I asked 'Popsy' (user on this forum) who lives in France and he recently ordered some Shell lubes from Delti. It was a GTL batch.

Shell does not use "GTL" wording on it's bottles, at least not in Europe. Instead they use "Shell PurePlus Technology" word written on a piston as seen on the bottle. For example, if you take a look at http://www.tyres-outlet.co.uk/cgi-bin/os...icle_disabled=1 you will see Shell PurePlus sentence on a piston:

While information provided above is generic can you please tell us more details what is your car and why you are so passionate about GTL technology?
