Yeah and mine too as I always use BP Ultimate. I was dipped a few weeks ago in the Land Rover Discovery at Birkenhead and the guy said to me I see you use the best. I just smiled at him and said I know no cheap stuff for me.

Have seen them dipping there for the last two years,why would they think that anyone coming from this part of the world would be running on anything other than genuine DERV.

They first put it in the tank and then pull it out.

Was told by someone that has just arrived so I assume on the way out but maybe both.
