I did 100k on Castrol gtx in an f4i plus tens of thousands on other bikes using the same oil. I buy it in bulk and it goes in the whole fleet.
Pros: fine with wet clutches
Mileage: 100000 km
I hated the castrol, I could tell the engine was louder with it compared to Pennzoil.
Cons: engine louder
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
In the rare occasions I get it from there, I use Castrol or Mobil One 5W-30 or 40.
Pros: use this oil
Walmart carries jugs of Castrol Edge SPT 0w40 A3/B4 for much less than quarts at AutoZone
Run it in my R, wife's GTI, and even ran it in a WRX I used to have. It's good oil, the analyses I've sent in over the years don't lie!
Pros: good oil, analyses don't lie
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Castrol Edge 5W-30 for me. I live in Vegas where it barely gets under 30 degrees in winter even so it's a better oil for the hot climate in live in
Pros: better oil for hot climate

Fa20 DIT..Castrol edge Euro..0w 40 winter, 5w40 the rest..111k miles, stock block, E85, 400ish whp, drive like I stole it..I change it every 3k, 4k a few times in a pinch...I also run an IAG street AOS
Pros: stock block, E85
Mileage: 111000 km
It is an oil from one of the lowest ranges of Castrol.
It is a 100% mineral oil, which is not good and therefore, in addition to greasing, cleaning and cooling less, it has a much shorter useful life, it needs more frequent changes, it is an oil how little/nothing is worth it for a motorcycle whatever it is.
Cons: shorter useful life
5w-30 Castrol LongLife in mine in Europe. But often interchangeable, but always depending on what the manual says. Top thing though I’ve found after 120k miles in on a TSI is: keep it near top of dipstick to bypass chain and turbo issues (turbo especially relies on good oil supply). Listen for rattling chain and listen to turbo note, can often hear changes and usually due to lower oil level.
Pros: bypass chain and turbo issues
Cons: rattling chain, turbo issues
Mileage: 193121 km
I had a 2009 VW Rabbit, and I'd often buy Castrol Syntec (full synthetic). I haven't seen this 'Euro Car' formula, but it says it's full synthetic, so I think it would be fine.
Pros: full synthetic
