I was going to take advantage of the current Halfords offer and buy some. I assumed Mobil 0/40 The web tool suggests Mobil 1 ESP 0W40 which is a fair bit more expensive. Whats best?

As mine drinks about a litre every 600 miles or so I use the 'Triple QX' fully synthetic stuff from Eurocarparts - used it for a few years without issues.

I'm the same, buy it when on offer as my aero likes to get through it. Runs fine on it.

last time i went to halfords and looked at oil.......i was shocked even with the special offer!!!!
.
(i also get 10% Off advertised prices- through a cycle club membership)

Amazon was half....the price....and that was delivered to my front door...
opie oils...are also much cheaper for the same oil...
