Default Correct Oil? Best Price?

Finally I am almost qualified to post in here....


Is Castrol Edge the only oil people use???? I have always changed my oil far more frequently than manufacturer instructions, and will be continuing this with the new addition to the fleet ( 2 can be a fleet right? Rob you will know the answer to that? 2 maybe our entire fleet with the latest cutbacks)


What other oils to people use?

I've found castrol on offer here at my favourite tuning shop if anyone else wants to stock up on some lube....

Last Opie Oil deal I had was this
Castrol EDGE 10W-60 for special BMW M-Series engines -4 x 4 Litres 1 £125.34

I got the VAT back of course so nett to me was £106 for 16 litres - £6.63/litre.
