MOTUL OILS OFFER FOR THE DLOC
The Federation of British Historic Vehicle Clubs has been working with the oil company MOTUL to create a special deal for classic car clubs.
Motul is a family owned, French oil company who are very well known in the UK motorcycle industry where they estimate they have 40% of the oil sales.
Motul have created an offer whereby DLOC members can buy their products at a 15% discount and the club receives a 5% referral fee.
The quality of their products is evident by the product specifications and they will work with the DLOC to create a reference sheet to match our vehicle requirements to their products. In the meantime, it’s easy to see they have SAE 30 for the older engines, fluid flywheels and gearboxes, through 20/50 blends and up to the modern style oils we use in our everyday cars. And it’s not just oils as they do brake fluid, antifreeze and many other products. (If you buy antifreeze and brake fluid, please make sure it’s suitable for your car – that’s why we will be producing a reference chart soon.)
It's easy to order, just go to the webpage clubmotul.co.uk select your products and at the checkout using the club discount code DLOC15. The oil is despatched overnight from Motul’s warehouse in Malvern. Couldn’t be easier to save a fiver and earn the club a quid. Whatever money we receive will go to keeping our subscriptions down.
One unique aspect of Motul’s service is a mail-order Oil Analysis kit. An oil analysis can search for contaminants and metal elements present in the lubricant, detect premature or accelerated engine or gearbox wear and recommend if it is necessary to carry out parts replacement - could save you a fortune (and you get £6 off the price).
