What is the best stuff to use for between-services oil and filter changes?

Ta.

Don't mind spending more for really decent oil.

got to be the synthetic stuff from Castrol, that is what BMW recommends and what is used in the new mini's. I'm sure a quick call to mini BMW will confirm the oil spec- the viscosity, that is.
