It doesn't have enough clearance to go over the bodies and the little pointy things will prevent the bodies from sliding over the roof. This vehicle should have been planned better.
A guy here named Squidward I think from Australia said he never changed oil, but of course was adding oil.
He got approx 150k miles out of it using conventional 5w20 of any brand for oil addition.
Look up Squidward and read. it's very interesting.
I'm about to send a 8 year 8k mile oil change for analysis using Mobil 0w40.
Ain't even worried.

That's what I mean, the oil itself might be fine, but how much metal has it picked up. I don't have a horse in the fight whether it's good or not, just asking for the data you're offering

I do 3k mile changes with 5W-20 conventional oil.
The main thing about the 8 is that you can't drain out that much oil out of the engine. In my S2, the engine holds 7 L while each oil change drains out 4ish L. That's below 60% of new oil in the car.
On most piston cars, you can get at least 90% of the oil out and you can use synthetic, so yeah 5k+ miles is nothing.
