Evening chaps.
For the last 3 years I've always forked out for Gulf Competition oil for the HDi's annual oil change, but as it's going to be given to my girlfriend to learn in I feel this might be a little extravagant.
As such, can someone recommend some more mid-range oil that'll be nice and cheap for a quick change on a car that'll be driven very sedately from now on, but will still offer the necessary protection on a car that has done 50k miles in my ownership, and I hope will do another 50k.
Same goes for filters, I've always bought OEM filters from Peugeot (they always give me a little discount), but this might, again, be overkill now. Are aftermarket filters fine? Any brands to look out for/avoid?
Cheers 'n gone.
