What engine coolant do you guys use to top up? Mines below the minimum mark quite a bit

I've got a cheap one here in my garage called xstream g30 antifreeze and coolant only cost £5.90 for the bottle. My local motor factors shop reccomended it to me. Not sure if there's an actual reccomended sort but mine still works

Thats a good idea. I'll top it up with water and then get some from there
