dont quote me on this, but i would tend to go for a "thicker" oil, and not to go for fully synthetics.
i would use the thicker oil mainly due to engine age and wear. unless youve got a baffled sump then i would think that the thinner oils would be poorly distributed under hard use and cornering?!?!?!
but as i say, dont quote me on this!!!

Its true that a 10W/30 is thinner than a 10W/40 once warm. It sounds like the advice in Golf+ magazine is based on misinformation about oil viscosity!
