Default Price of oil filter from Honda

The last time I bought oil filters from Honda (I did bulk buy and got half a dozen) I'm sure they were about £6 or £7 each.
Bought one yesterday and it was £11.84 plus VAT. Have I been robbed?

I'm guessing HAMP or similar are even more now as well?

That's exactly how much I paid for one a few months ago.

Honda prices have been creeping up for some while now but I think that's a fair price for peace of mind (I'd never fit a non-OEM oil filter)

Filters have always been in the region of a tenner. The HKS one is £20, but it is JOLLY pretty.

Makes you wonder what these back street garages are using on £35 oil and filter changes.

genuine vag/skoda stuff is pretty good quality and well priced better than Honda stuff which to be fair is good quality.

I phoned today to see how much a set off full front and rear pads would be, £100 now, they'd likely knock me a fiver off though.

I've had good experiences buying parts from Honda. Like the little bracket the routes a small water pipe around the throttle cable to the inlet manifold. Got change from a tenner inc vat.
