Halfords, you must be joking!!!!
Went there one sunday for some Ford gearbox oil, £12 for half a litre, drove the 5 miles to the only motor factor open locally on a Sunday £3 for a full litre!!!! Their oil/air filters are double the price. Needed a heater plug one sunday £15 for one, a full set at the motor factor £20, (and before anyone says they were good quality ones).
The moral is don't bother, unless your really desperate on a Sunday.
Go to your local motor factor, cheaper, hold more stock and usually they know have someone who at least knows what they are talking about.
