Low miles Nige? 76k? That's almost worn out for a rover V8 lump......
hehehe, just kidding matey.
Personally, I'd run Castrol Magnatec in it, either 10W40 or 15W40.

Me last one had 156k on it when i sold it, it had just had the heads done
due to water leaks from front gallery of the head gasket.
The garage that did it remarked (I also saw) a total lack of wear at all,
none! It goes to show, regulaqr maintenance helps.
It was the original engine too.
I'll shove a load of 15/40 then.
