    Quick query, for those who know, is this motor oil appropriate for my standard 93n (1.8 gti) and is it a good price?

    Yes, that oil is suitable for your engine. And NZD 99.00 works out to be about AUD 73.00, which is a good price for 5L of 504/507 oil.

    but thats normally around the $35 per L mark, wheres as castrol edge 5w/30 is normally $55 (even though i got it at $42 when it was on sale a while back)
    Castrol sell a workshop only "Magnatec Professional" range. Some of it is full synthetic. The C4 or C3 possibly even 502.00 approved but i couldn't be bothered looking up the TDS.
