It says for Prime Members only - apologies if you're not. £18.74 is a great price for this brand oil which meets VW 504.00/507.00 longlife (and other) specs

This is not VW 504.00/507.00 approved. It's 502.00/505.00 only
There's a few people selling this stuff (and shell fully) for less than a tenner.... all have zero feedback...

All VW specs for cars since 2005 are 5w30 so this must be a spec for jalopy vw.

Great price and a great oil for high performance engines. My old GTi-R loved this stuff.

Now theres a blast from the past lol, I always wanted a GTi-R but ended up buying an Impreza Wrx instead. Super rare car now

Would this be any good for a BMW 1 series 123d? Normally use Castrol Edge.

Try Europecarparts it might work out cheaper using PAT55 as code

Just to follow-up - the Amazon description contains conflicting information re VW504.00 / 507.00. Description says it's that spec, the brief description at the top of the page doesn't. I suspect, given the comments above, that the description is wrong and it's just 502/505. So still fairly cheap for branded oil, but not super cheap.

ECP are doing this for £17.37 using PAT55 code including same day delivery, or click and collect which ever is preferred

I was only thinking the other day how few WRXs you see (or hear) these days. They both are super rare now, and prices are sky rocketing. My GTi-R rusted away so I put the engine into an Almera GTi.
Cold I'm afraid, not a terrible price but it's cheaper at ECP and I've had from there in the past for about 14 pounds-ish.

It all depends on spec. 504/507 is definitely not cheaper from ECP. IF this is 504/507 then it's the cheapest around. If it's not, then it's not. I decided to cancel my order as the listing is too ambiguous and I don't need the hassle of returning it if it's not 504/507. Ended up buying 4l of Petronas Syntium for ~£26 from CarPartsDirect.

This one is 504.00/507.00 though and is what most VW dealerships are using:
