Remember when SAAB were still building cars. Brought a brand new 95 estate and they wanted £75 for an oil filter. It was a GM engine, 2.2TDi same as Vauxhall, so popped into a parts counter in local Vauxhall dealership and £12.99.

When I removed the old filter, the part number on the top matched the GM one I had just brought. Felt good saving £50+ squiddlies, robbing buggers.

Sadly even with the Peugeot part number I can only find one on flea bay and it’s in Spain so still £50 when it gets here!!!
The auto factors couldn’t even find it on their system after I took the old filter with part number to them! 😐
