If you're going to do that, then get a big drum and make a proper saving. Too much farting around for me just to save a couple of quid. Nor do I want several years worth of oil lying about.

Plus a handump is needed and a suitable measuring jug to decant the oil into. Still saving money?

I prefer to buy it in 4 * 5l cans as it allows me to put the old oil into the empty cans to dispose of it - garage I use for MOT's has a heater that runs off old oil.
