4 years later still you guys talk about it. In fact my 1st post is dated 4 yeads ago.

I have bought one myself and never regretted.
RM 89.90 for a ori retail price of RM 230 oil is bang of the buck.

The reason why Shell Malaysia can't sue Tesco and Giant is because they are bringing in genuine oil also. But they created fake stories about lab testing showed "2 out 10" tested fake.

So What Shell Malaysia did was to create a nonsense ad - Made for Malaysia / Utk Pasaran Malaysia.
Of course this does effective fool some people but in reality, there is no such thing as an oil developed for a specific country.

I have even read some FB comments - "EU oil is for cold country such as UK. Not compatible for our hot country". Nonsense. The 5w40 from EU and the so-called 'Made for Malaysia Market' 5w40 has the same viscosity.

And I bet some would doubt it because of the cheaper price. Its OK. You can goto Shell Station and get it for RM 230 if that satisfies you.

Agree with you on all the bullshits from Shell Malaysia on 'Made for Malaysia' oil adverts , and would love to read public statements in black and white from Shell Malaysia stating clearly that this Helix Ultra VOA from Russia is NOT suitable for Malaysia weathers bla bla bla .
