Oil consumption is outside specification, and needs around a litre of oil every 7 500km, not unusual for a race-bred engine. But, if you are only getting 1 litre for only 1500, you might want to change brand of oil, or ensure you are using the right type of oil.......
5/40 fully synthetic - Shell Helix Ultra, or (cheaper) 10/40 Semi-synthetic Shell Helix Plus. The volume depends on the engine capacity, for example the 2litre engine needs 5.8 litres.
For my own Mercedes I use 5/40 fully synthetic oil from Tesco, it meets all the tough technical specifications and it is considerably cheaper than branded oils.
