Hampshire locals - help please

Ok, I've got the use of a ramp to do some work on the Supra for the next two days and I'm going to drop the oil among other things as its been about 4k (hard) miles since the last change.

 

I've got a new sump plug and washer from Mr T but I the problem I'm having is sourcing decent oil for my bpu TT.

 

Looking at 5/10w 40 and something like the Fuchs Titan Pro S or the Motul 300v but can't find it locally in any other places other than getting it delivered from Opie or Demon.

 

Worst case scenario I'm going to have to wait or use a Shell / Mobil / Castrol alternative but I am unsure of their quality.

 

Any suggestions or anyone know of local(ish) places that stock decent oils?

I'm too late for an online order so it would have to be store collection.

ECP and Halfrauds etc don't stock these.

 

Cheers in advance.

Whereabouts in Hampshire are you? Running an NA, I get my oils from Halfords. There's a motor factors in Basingstoke that sell this that's allegedly for a Supra TT:

Triple R 5w40, fully synth. I've never heard of it though.

 

Or from GSF (also in Bstoke): Or Mobil Super 3000 5w30 here: http://www.gsfcarparts.com/980aa1691
