don't spray it anywhere near your brakes, spray some in the lid and paint it one with a brush

once its on leave it alone and don't wash it until spring is the advice i think most folk give when using acf50

Its about the norm for 2 aerosols, although I'm sure I've seen it slightly cheaper elsewhere

I use Halfords semi syn, but Hein Gerike is re branded Motul, so just as good.

IMHO all the oils are pretty much the same as they will come from the same source.

Just look for a deal at Hein Gericke, Halfords, Busters or M&P, Wemoto, even EBAY

Spark plugs - NGK

Filters - I just use OEM or Pattern from Wemoto. Again they're all made to the same spec

Better to do regular oil changes to look after your engine
