Just heard this on the radio, you also get a free oil top up too.
Only downside is that it's their own branded oil from Comma.

If you have a Turbo (especially a HDi and a turbo) then this is a 1 way ticket to a new turbo. Halfords own brand oil is grim in my opinion - it's ok for N/A, small engines (be good in a 1.1, maybe a 1.4 non-turbo petrol as well) but stick to premium fully synth with anything Turbo'ed (and HDi's doubly so). You really get what you pay for when it comes to oil IMO

You would want an oil that at least meet's or better exceeds PSA B71 2290
Comma do make such an oil especially for PSA Peugeot / Citroen engines ![Whistle... Whistle...](images/smiles/icon_whistle.gif)
