Nice find. Quick question - not trying to start up the usual oil wars but...

I've been running the Penrite Classic Mini (20W-50 Mineral), but lately down here in Melb it is sooooo cold the poor Mini runs a bit rough at startup, with quite high oil pressures until she is well and truly warmed up. I've never tried the XLD classic, but hear a lot of good things about it.

Would you still run this XLD 20W-50 in the arctic extremes of Victoria? My mini is a daily driver.

Yeah it's fine year round, just take it easy when cold for a km or so until the oil warms a bit.

I've been told that penrite hpr 30 is good. Not sure why but my engine builder said to use it. What are your thoughts?

Doesn't xld premium have all the additives we are trying to avoid? Premium seems to be more readily available. But I've always avoided it

Gfs old man works at repco and they don't stock classic just premium. They looked up there computer n they told me it's the same just a "newer" blend/model/type but the same.
