Bargain oil filters...

If you're planning a service soon, you'll probably be needing an oil filter. I've previously used BMW-branded ones, Mahle OC306 and Mann MW75 on my 1200ST, depending on what I've spotted at a good price. Anyway....rooting around on t'web for this year's service items, I've just found out that Euro Car Parts list the Mann MW75 as a fitment for that ugly BMW i3 thing - £7.19 with free postage - a bargain methinks! :smile:

eBay item no. 331978486431, or cheaper still....£6.85 if you can 'click and collect....on ECP's website, just for this weekend.

I quite fancy that ugly i3 thing. I like K&N filters as they have the nut on the end.
