http://www.lidl.co.uk/cps/rde/xchg/lidl_uk/hs.xsl/index_17085.htm I am hoping they are the same ones they have had in the past, i.e. Tesla branded +50%. I have some H7's fitted from when they were on offer a while ago and they have lasted and are noticeably brighter. If they are I'll be buying a spare set

Also 5 litre screenwash good for -60 degrees undiluted and compatible with fanjet nozzles at £4.99 and a few other bits and bobs. http://www.lidl.co.uk/cps/rde/xchg/lidl_uk/hs.xsl/index_17094.htm

Tempting. I might pop in.

Thanks for the heads up, looks good stuff!

Yes - I've got the Aldi equivalent - they're actually C-Tek Battery Conditioner "clones" for a fraction of the price. Appears to work fine.

I've never had a problem...

Have you mixed VAG with non VAG.... or always just various NON VAG?

I've never seen any evidence.... but apparently if you get a cheap one that the VAG stuff doesn't like it'll congeal into a jelly like goo! Nice!

TBH, the VAG stuff isn't expensive and works better than most the Non VAG stuff I've ever bought so I just stick with it.

I've used Halfords for years in a succession of cars...

Just got the bulbs and they are marked "wotan" and sold as +50% bulbs. Not found much on the net but this short review on here seems favourable http://briskoda.net/forums/topic/184366-module-headlightsrubbish/page__view__findpost__p__2209887

Dont want yo burst your bubble guys, i really dont like those bulbs, had a set in the smart, as soon as it got cold they started to pop, we had stocked up on them but i was getting through them like they where consumable!

I have just been to my local eurocarparts.

Came away with 8 x 5ltr of screenwash for £19.20 incl VAT

Yes thats just £2.40 for 5 ltr

Does that go down to -60 undiluted though? The Lidl stuff may still be more cost effective as it can be diluted quite a bit.

Thanks for your feedback, won't be rushing to buy anymore then. Good to keep as an emergency spare and rush to buy some decent bulbs as spares then

Don't know.

It's a concentrate.

I use it at 25% mix with water and it never froze when the car outside temp gauge went to -17 over christmas so it will do for me.
