I know we probably wouldn't normally use this (it's 10w40 semi-synthetic), but it's cheap. What do we think?

been struggling to find mineral oil local garages and factors only seem to have semi synthetic

try halfords classic
or GSF

. . . or try Wilkinson's if there's one near you:
Wilko 15w-40 mineral oil

and change the oil and filter regularly.

Wilkinsons also good for the right gearbox oil.
