i use castrol rs, but on the continent here it is fully synthetic whereas in uk it may not be. have not tried any others to see if they're better though.

Silkolene Pro S and Motul 300v are tops for quality without a doubt.
Cheers

Hey again oliman
I've managed to get a hold of the Motul RBF600 Brake Fluid for my Sapphire.
Which oil out of the Silkoline or Motul do you personally think is the best?.
Cheers mate

They're both good TBH.
Comparing the top ones, 300V and PRO S, I personally think the PRO S is the best as 10w-50 is a better all year round grade than 15w-50.

10w 60 might be on for racing but for the road its bad news tried it in mine after brand new engine was fitted and knocked like a bitch, so i switched to good old 10w 40 magnatec and is quiet as a mouse now. dont use thick oil unless you using for trackdays

20w is not good al year round. It doesn't flow quick enough on cold start when cold causing unecessary wear at this critical time. 10w-50 is a better choice.
Cheers
