This way I know the oil is getting the correct filtration, I suspect that cheaper filters use inferior filtering which could allow particles to circulate around the oilways.

£5??  Where's that from? 

Cheapest I can find is about a tenner compared with £2.60 for a Unipart one.

DiscoDan:
About £5 is my local independent LR garage, if you use one regularly you can get discount or as mentioned above shop online.

Even so, the difference between your costs is around £7, compared to the possible shortened life of your engine, peace of mind, and fewer problems such as your oil light staying on, it's not much to pay.

Cheers, Dan
