If you would like any oil advice or a recommendation for your car please feel free to ask here and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
To help us to give the most accurate advice possible we do need some information about your car. e.g.
Make:
Model:
Year:
Engine type:
Performance modifications:
Driving style: (road / off-road / track etc)
Any other information that may be relevant: e.g. approx BHP if modified, oil temps if known
What recommendation are you looking for? Engine, Gearbox, Diff etc.
Any oil we recommend is available to buy from us (if you would like to) for delivery throughout the UK and many destinations in Europe. We stock oils & lubricants from 9 major oil brands: Amsoil, Castrol, Fuchs, Gulf, Millers, Mobil, Motul, Redline and Silkolene, so we can supply fluids meeting the vast majority of manufacturer and international specifications.
206.info members get a discount of at least 10% on our usual prices... just choose "206info.vo.uk" as your club when registering on the Opie Oils web site and enter your forum username.
Finally, if there are any products we don't stock and you have difficulty getting hold of elsewhere, let us know and we'll see if we can stock them.
We look forward to being of help!
Cheers

I always use 5/40 fully synthetic in my 206 GTI 180. I believe it is total or shell oil that i purchase and i get it from the peugeot dealership, believe it or not they are the cheapest I have found.
