Sparkyman. Ford specify 12,500 miles or 12 months, whichever comes soonest. A good quality oil is Comma XTC5L 5L XTech fully synthetic and at around ยฃ21.00 is only about ยฃ3.00 more expensive than the semi synthetic version. If you want to 'overservice' I'd use the synthetic and change every 6,000 miles or six months.
