I use whatever 10-40 semi synthetic the local motor factors has in. Last time it was valvoline. Only paid £10 for 5 litres (Get my parts for cost price as I only work over the road from them!)

Castrol 10w40 Magnatec. Some sort of Car Plan gearbox oil would be fine probably.

retails around £60 for 5 litres, but can be had for around 45 if you search about, worth it imo

Best oil is the stuff recommended by the manufacturer which for a c20xe is GM 10w40 which costs about a tenner.
