This is what MSDS for this oil say:

"Preparation description : A blend of severely hydrotreated slack wax and additives.
Highly refined mineral oil."

Should it be called "synthetic"... or not? Again, ask Oilman for advice.

As long as it meets the ACEA standard of B4 then it will be okay.

There are lots of 5W40 "synthetic" oils available from different sources, that will be fine and dandy for your Megane 1.9dCi. If you want a specific recomendation pm Oilman, he might be able to do you a similar deal on a better oil?
