Halfords in Carrickmines do have their own classic motor oil .I have always used it and found it to be good.

I'll second that, the Halfords stuff seems fine.

I was in touch last year with an wholesaler who had a pallet, 40 bottles x 5lt. Silkolene 20w/50 (and the right API code)- Silkolene was really good stuff "back in the day" - it was working out at about 1/2 price against the shop, there wasn't really any interest at the time for a group buy. I can phone him again if we can get good interest - He will only sell the whole pallet-load.
