Plus it makes it easier to fit a funnel, or in my case empty toilet roll cardboard's, and top up without the oil going all over the place.  ::)
With neck in place, no funnel needed :y
Well I must be doing something wrong then, because I can never get the bloody stuff in without it going all over the place especially with a full new one.  :-\
My Parkinsons obviously hasn't reached the stage of yours yet :P

Technically, I can't remember it. I was told the next morning, once the fog had cleared a bit, by colleagues I was staying with.

Must have been the Canterbury water....

had some mayo in the filler for a couple of months now, and the MOT garage said she is leaking oil, did not say where from...... will this be the cylinder head gasket? Any ideas. As do not want the headache of getting someone to fix it, head skimmed, would rather just  scrap the car, if so..... sadly
  is the dipstick oil level ok, any mayo on dipstick. if its as suggested short trips then if you decide on changing oil & filter there is a dealer near you. Bristol st motors. gm oil is good. also I would be willing to change it for you then you are just forking out for the service bits.
