I get my car serviced at RCM. They recommend, supply and use Castrol Syntrax 75w-90 in customers' cars (unless otherwise told not to lol).
Think the front diffs/'box assembly takes 3.5L IIRC(?)
The rear VC takes 0.9L IIRC(?)
Opie sell plenty of 75W-90 synthetic gearbox oil options. They often run money-off promotions/voucher codes.

Opie also supplies Millers, I replaced all mine with Millers 75W-90, it runs at £16 per litre though...but as it only needs to be done once in 5 years I thought I might as well spend some cash. It made a difference to the cold gearchange , much less "notchy".
you can use the M3C code for 10%, or as mentioned, Opie always has 10% or 15% off deals on. Free postage over £40 I think .

Thanks for the recommendations.
You need a 75w-90 GL5 oil.

The Millers CRX NT, Motul Gear 300, Red Line 75w-90NS, Amsoil Severe Gear and Gulf Competition are ideal as top end options. The Millers TRX Synthetic/EE Nanodrive, Mobil SHC, Castrol Syntrax Universal Plus and Valvoline Synpower TDL are good, but a step down from the top oils. Fuchs Gear Syn, Motul Motylgear, Millers TRX Semi and Castrol Universal are good, cheaper options.
You can use the code SCOOBY for 10% off.

I keep forgetting to use the code when ordering
I’ve just stuck the syntrax oil in the track car, I think the rear diff might be 0.8l to fill, I previously thought it was 0.9l but mine started coming out at that point and after a quick look online some places state 0.8l
