Hi all - New to the tvr s world

Just purchased an s1, so wanting to give it a good service. What is the best engine oil to use(grade), and what are the crucial parts to service on the s1?

The chassis has just been wax oiled.

The car is in perfect condition and everything works (electrical too).

thnx
