think youl need 3.8l

ps: a little tip buy the oil a day before you put it in and leve the oil next to a warm house radiator over night. it will poor a lot easier

just had a chat with a guy i deal with at demon tweeks the millers oil i could use will work out at £65.00 for a 5 litre bottle

he did also say i probably would not notice any difference from millers to a standard brand on a standard box where as if i was running with a lsd or a moded box then i probably would want to run the best i could afford

Decision time

I run the cheapest oil I can get in all my cars. Had no issues yet.

75/90 will do you fine.... Probly best going euro car parts or gsf and buy a gallon drum... Dont think you would need to slash out on fancy oils for the old JB3 box...

Do halfords sell it in the larger bottles or is it still only 1 litre? Get it from a local factor, 5 litres works out a lot cheaper. I got mine nearly same price as 1 litre but get a nice price at my work
