7000 miles and have been going through 1litre every thousand miles dealer says to wait until 16000 mile service and should improve? should be a complimentary re-fill in between services as i can only get oil from the dealer at ?22.00 per litre bit of a rip off i feel!

1.3L to 0.7L going from 0mi to 1200mi.
0.7L to 0.2L going from 1200mi to 2600mi (which is where I am now).
Need to put some oil in right now. Castrol 10W-60 is what I'm being told. Although no one seems to carry it except the dealer.

Yes it's Castrol... it's called TWS 10W-60. Good luck finding it anywhere but the dealer. Very difficult to locate, and your local autoparts store is not one of the places you'll be able to get it, even if you try having them order a case. Some dealers price is reasonably ($9-10 or so), others are charging $15+. My local dealer does top-offs for free, but I heard that recently they upped the price from the $9/qt I paid a year ago to $15+. Probably to make up for the free top-offs.
