I am about to jump into a fray I have been avoiding.
As someone who looks into engines that get varying degrees of care.
I would recommend 10-30 Mobil one as opposed to the 5w-30 Saab semi synthetic oil. I like a little more viscosity when hot especially in a turbocharged car.
I have seen engines with 250,000 miles that have been run on Mobil one their entire lives that were near perfect internally when they were torn down "just because" by a picky owner. I am sold on their product.
Of course if you are leasing just do the changes at 10k and let someone else buy the turbo at 50k.
