    I think they recommend Castrol RS. There's a wee sticker under the bonnet that tells you I think.

    MINI recommend Castrol SLX 0W - 30 fully synthetic. Dealers sell wee top up pack's that come in a wee zip up MINI branded cases with disposable funnels, gloves and dip-stick wipes (Oh! Matron!!) for about the same price of a litre of Halfords fully synthetic. Pretty cool if you like stuff like that.
    And I do!:clown:
