Although there doesn't appear to be a Ford C2/C3 oil spec, the PSA spec for Peugeot/Citroens which use the same engine is C2/C3. The HTHS for C2 is >2.9 and C3 >3.5 - so it's likely to have better wear characterisics than the Ford 934 C1 (Low Saps) oil - and your experience also suggests that it could well be a good compromise.
