Castrol RS 10W/60
Motul 300V 15w/50

These will not damage your engine

Cheers

Mobil 1 Motorsport 15-50 is more widely available, my car uses about 6 litres of oil normally, which means buying two 5 litre bottles from Halfords and keep the spare for the next oil/filter change.

5 - includes filter.
Be sure that they do not fill it over the upper mark. Check before you leave the garage.
