£18 for 5 litres. That's a pretty good price and includes delivery. I ordered two bottles. Ordered on Monday, delivered Thursday - you can pay for quicker delivery.

likewise. Bargain!
Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

Bother. I should have kept quiet! It definitely still said £18 this morning. Guess that batch must have sold out.

It certainly did Ian and I was going to order myself a 5 litre pack, Damn :cry:

As you've stated 'You should have kept quiet' on that one for yourself or ordered what you wanted first and then made the posting afterwards(If there were any left of course) :wink:

Not as good as my bargain lhm's that i bought last year, worked out at about £2 a litre :) Even at £22.80, that's still cheaper than what Malcolm can do for you at the shows, so still a good buy.

S&N are/where my local factors, great people and they have an absolute stock pile of random odds and ends, no idea where they store it all as the shop is tiny, but they've never let me down!

I normally by my TOTAL LHM from GSF in a 20 litre barrel, they don't list it anymore but i believe they can still get them.

I only use TOTAL LHM as the performance is far greater than any other make (and by performance, i mean the time until it breaks down and becomes thin)

Personally, I'm not worried about how quickly the LHM breaks down, partly because the steering does better on thin LHM, but mainly because it doesn't seem to stay in the car long enough to break down :oops:

I see that the few available packs of LHM from S&N motor Factors for £14.99 have now gone !

I hope the person(s) who got them is/are grateful for my spot/link I posted up ?

I've got a contact at Rock Oil, better known for motorcyle race oils but they do all sorts. He's a former BX GTi owner so sympathetic to the cause! He's looking into what sort of deal he can do me for LHM in either 5L or 25L packaging. If the price is good would there be any interest in a group purchase?
