Depends which ones you look at, essentially 5w-40 synthetic is better in every way to a 10w-40 semi (unless you are running in) so they will cost more.

Lots of choice, any good quality 5w-40 synthetic is ideal. Everyone has their preference. We find the best and most popular are the ester based 5w-40 oils, but have a browse at these http://www.opieoils.co.uk/c-656-5w-40.aspx

A decent ester based 5w-40 synthetic, Silkolene Pro S would be my choice, or the Motul 300v.
If temps reach abover 120degc on a regular basis you will need to go thicker.

Depends on your oil temps, if they are not excessive then stick with an ester based 5w-40. Silkolene Pro S or the Motul 300v http://www.opieoils.co.uk/c-656-5w-40.aspx
