Default ktc oil

Does anyone have experience of using ktc oil? It's selling for £17.95 for 20 litres at Bookers. I put 20 l through the Lucida and it seemed okay,but I seem to remember reading ages ago a caution about it.Any thoughts?

I had a few problems with it but seem to be one of the few, my pump seems to be a little weak and very sensitive to different oils, there are two types of KTC that look identical but one is cholestrol free and the other is naturally low in cholestrol, my bus only likes the stuff labelled cholestrol free

I think the KTC works out at .89p/pl. I get the 1 ltr Euro Shopper from Bookers at .87p/pl and I think they have 1/2 ltr bottles (a bit messy as you have twice the amount of bottles) at 85p/pl if I remember rightly.

Going there on Friday and hope to stock up on the 1/2 ltr bottles.... providing the price hasnt risen again!!
