i get my own mineral from Autobacs and bring down to my usual mechanic to do the oil change, filters etc. This is for simple servicing. Actually its no choice cos MG was away in Japan.

I did mine at DKC... the servicing is cheap but u nid to tell them wat sort of servicing u wan to do... lately they r promoting trust rotary oil which comes in semi synthetic and fully synthetic which is much cheaper than autobacs... normally they will use bizol mineral oil...which cost $35...
u can try ask for advice from the owner Kaz Shirane.. he will be more than happy to teach u... He actually tell me if my car is meant for normal road driving dun nid to use expensive oil... but if u wan to go tracking, then is advisable to go for those high end engine oil. Whether u go for wat oil, it is always advisable to change every 5k.
Therefore it depends on ur budget... if u willing to spend more on better oil by all means.

By the way, does anyone knows how many litres of coolant is required to do a coolant flushed?
Found the answer: 9.8 litres

I do mine at the appointed workshop of the PI. Use Shell Mineral Oil. I send in every 3000km. Each time $59. Got lounge to drink kopi read papers and watch DVD. They even have a massage chair. I will switch when I find a workshop with full HC services.
