But hey, it's your money and time.
Unless your car's engine requires fully synthetic oil only. You have no choice but stick to its needs. With my Fiesta Ecoboost before, I just change oil every 10k km and it covers a period of around 12 months.

Buti pa VW cars, change oil (FS only) every 15k km or 12 months.
