The best thing you can do for your car is change oil regularly.I change mine every 4000 miles👍

Modern oils really don't require such frequent changes.

If you've still got the 1.6 petrol I wouldn't be at all worried about sticking to yearly/10k changes.

Unless the oil is in a MK2/MK2.5 Focus 1.6 TDCi 😁

Mines is over 13000 and still fine but due to weather have it all but not had the chance ☹️ snow for weeks now rain constant. May have to get wet and deal with it.

That's the engines fault (and partly the drivers), not the oils! :wink:
