I have just picked up the wifes `new` 02 KA tonight. The car is a one owner with 72K. The trip home was about 20 miles and I was very impressed with the ride and comfort for a super-mini. I want to do a lubrication service. What oil is recommended for the car. I have already ordered a service kit from ebay. A Haynes manual will be next on the list, but any help on the oil in the meantime will be appreciated.
