    Royal Purple Max-cycle 10W40?

    In my humble opinion and my motoring experience, RP oil is not worth the money it is sold to. There are a lot of oils sold at a fair price that do their job well. Here in Europe and in Italy in particular RP has absurd prices above 20 € liter while other brands such as Motul, Bardahl, Mobil...
