I purchased the car about 1 Year old,the topping up oil was very frequent, about half a Litre per 1500 mile (very thirsty).
I was using Vauxhall procedure to check oil level.

I had an oil change I do this about every 3K miles because do low mileage per year.
I use Halfords fully synthetic this was on offer '2 for the price of one' working out about £17.50 for 5 Litres not unreasonable.
I also returned to checking oil after standing overnight on level ground.
I am not which is\was solution to the oil consmption, now top ups not required between changes (3000 miles in my case)
There is a theory the oil drains slowly ie more than 5 minutes stated by Vauxhall.If the oil is topped up it is overfilled and burns this excess oil.
