Hi Guys,

Which oil would recommend for the above motor, remembering its serviced like clockwork (every 12months <10k), and driven hard only 20% of the time.

I have previously been using Castrol Magnatec 10W40, and Shell Helix (as this is what the stealer had).

Which out the Edges is recommended?
Castrol Edge 5W30
Castrol Edge 10W60
Castrol Edge 0W-30
Castrol Edge Sport 0W40
Castrol Edge Sport 10W60.

Is the Edge worth the 50-70% extra money?

I'm leaning towards the Castrol Edge Sport 0W40 for £38 (inc free screwdriver set) from Hellfrauds, does anyone know of a better deal than this? (have access to Booker Cash & Carry)

Cheers
Len
