I paid just over £30 at Euro Car Parts for 2x 5ltr containers - hence the suggestion.

Delivered G12 PLUS PLUS with 5 year garantee?

You don't have the link do you please? Can't find it anywhere?

Cheers,

You have to make use of their offer codes and/or haggle at the counter to get the price down.

G12+ with 5 year protection which is fine for our engines. You do not need plus plus....

You can buy where you like though. They were on my route home and cheaper than say GSF. They also do free delivery but you can often get a good discount with their seasonal codes and save by dropping by. At the moment its a whopping 20% off if you use promo code "Parts20" - will leave you to do the maths. :D

Ah yea, that's a wicked price, fair play!! £28.14 for 10 litres :) Only problem is I do need the plus plus as I'm not sure what coolant is in there at the moment and without a hose, can't guarantee removing it all of it. Cheers though! :ok

No, I was giving the address of Euro Car Parts in Cardiff fella. I'm in Coventry.

At that price I'd find someone with a hose if it were me, or connect one to a bucket sat on camper roof. :rofl

I used a watering can without the rose to flush the water through mine - did the job. Heck at that price you can afford to do the job twice if you had to.
