Supercheap is doing a runout on Mobil 1's, according to my local store they're discontinuing them completely hence the prices. If you're lucky and found your local store to have store (that's a struggle…) then they're cheaper than the usual suspects on eBay. If you're unlucky and ended up needing to get them shipped from their warehouse in Gympie then it's a so-so deal. Still slightly cheaper than from eBay.

Note: Stock level are low and availability are hit or miss. Be warned.

EDIT: as if Mobil will stop making this, it's just Supercheap will no longer stock Mobil 1's. Probably Mobil's in general as all the Mobil oil have disappeared off the shelves at my local.

EDIT #2: All the 5L 0W-40 and 5W-30's gone. All the 1L's still here…just. You could ring 'em up and get them to check their stock system to track down where are they still available at as their online stock allocation is somewhat separate from their physical store's stock allocation.

    For the VW fanbois, the 5W-30 is NOT 504/507 approved though I've been using that for years in my Mk5 R32 and oil analysis shows no epic wear issues.

      VW fanbois use Penrite :)

        The Enviro+ thingie? Pass, I'd rather Motul at that sort of money.

        • ironpaw on 03/02/2014 - 16:36

          Motul 300v Chrono FTW

        • mini2 on 03/02/2014 - 16:43

          That's one of my dilemma at the moment - 300v is a racing oil, no one's got a definitive answer on how the synthetic ethyl/ester breaks down over a larger number of heat cycles as oppose to a road going oil. Oh $50/2L isn't exactly cheap either.

  • lplau on 03/02/2014 - 15:05

    Great oil.
    Still got a few Mobil 1 EP which i got online.

    Hmmm thinking of using the remaining Mobil 1 EP then switching to Honda Ultra Leo 0-20 SM which is supposedly quite good.
    Needa check what price Honda will charge for their 0W-20 though, might need to go look for another oil.

  • Nousernamehere on 03/02/2014 - 15:12

    Oh crap.. Where am I going to get Mobil 1 Gold from now whenever they have a 20% off sale?!

    So Mobil 1 is being discontinued being made, or Supercheap just aren't offering it? Quick google just then I couldn't find any info about it.

    • lplau on 03/02/2014 - 15:12

      I think they are still going to be made, just not going to be stocked by Supercheap anymore.

      Lol, why would Mobil discontinue such a lucrative market.

      • Nousernamehere on 03/02/2014 - 15:18

        Who knows, but from the OP's post it's not clear.

        Where else can you get Mobil 1 Gold 0W-40 cheap?!

        • mini2 on 03/02/2014 - 15:22

          eBay.

          There's 2 main sellers on there. One is Sydney based and the other is Melbourne IIRC. I've purchased from the Sydney one on number of occasions now.

    • Rakddon on 03/02/2014 - 15:22

      SuperCheapAuto are just not going to stock them anymore.

      Repco or Autobarn should sell em.

      • Nousernamehere on 03/02/2014 - 15:32

        Repco don't, they stock some of the silver oils but not the gold, and Autobarn do but they're more expensive than Supercheap are (were), and as far as I know they never really have 20% off, as that was the only time I bought it as it made it a decent priced oil then.

    • mini2 on 03/02/2014 - 15:24

      Refer to my edit above. Supercheap just don't stock 'em anymore.

      Kinda like when Repco purged Motul from their store, those things were discounted at an even higher rate.

    • stumo on 03/02/2014 - 16:20

      Just use penrite hpr5. Its 5W-40 vs 0W-40 but its still MB229.5 approval and its half the price of that gold M1.

      • Nousernamehere on 03/02/2014 - 17:04

        Not quite half price, but close enough I guess :-P

        As I said, I only ever bought oil whenever it was 20% off so I didn't find it too bad. I had considering the Penrite before but was happy with the Mobil 1.

        Already got my last batch for my service in April when they had the boxing day sale, so won't have to worry about it till closer to October when the service after that is due.

        Wonder why they're no longer stocking it, probably losing too much money when everyone else just buys oil when they have 20% sales :-P

  • noob999 on 03/02/2014 - 15:21

    More room for Chief oil… Sales must be good.

    • mini2 on 03/02/2014 - 15:28

      Pep's recently started stocking the Sh*tbox oil. Maybe Supercheap's doing the same?

      • noob999 on 03/02/2014 - 15:32

        So long as they keep Penrite on the shelf… I'll be happy.

  • hoxygt on 03/02/2014 - 16:01

    Thats an incredible price thanks for sharing. Even freighted to WA isn't bad!

  • mini2 on 03/02/2014 - 16:18

    Stocks are running pretty darn low, just called them re 1L 0W-40, there's around 250ish of them left unsold around the country. Forgot to ask the really helpful bloke about the others…

  • jmoore626 on 03/02/2014 - 17:21

    Still some available on their ebay store…

    • Nousernamehere on 03/02/2014 - 18:52

      Ah awesome, thanks for that! Just bought 2x5L Mobil 1 gold 0W-40 for $103.40 delivered. Bargain.

    • mini2 on 03/02/2014 - 20:01

      pffffffffffft I've completely forgotten about their eBay store. For some absurd reason shipping is often cheaper via their eBay store!

      • stumo on 03/02/2014 - 20:02

        Bought 2 as well.

        • theguru1 on 04/02/2014 - 13:50

          Did the same, then got an email from Ebay saying that I wanted to cancel the sale with the seller.

        • stumo on 04/02/2014 - 16:43

          See that's bullcrap, because they can just get more stock from mobil. But i noticed just now the shipping charge has gone up to $20, and they are still selling it. Dodgey.

          Edit: now its $17 shipping, on the mobile eBay site, but if you change to desktop site its showing $6.50????????

          was $4.50 for postage when I purchased.

      Thx mate for letting us know about their eBay store.

  • Bacchus on 03/02/2014 - 21:44

    They also have Silkolene ATV Motorcycle Oil at $4.94 for 1 litre.

    It's Motorcycle 4T JASO-MA2 certified - Does this mean it is also suitable for any 4 stroke motorcycle?

  • mini2 on 05/02/2014 - 09:21

    The party's over, just checked the link and no more Mobil oil popped up :(

  • Rakddon on 05/02/2014 - 20:11
