With this being my first car of the older variety I was just wondering which oil to buy? Any advice please. Cheers Johnny.

can open, worms everywhere
10w40 or 15w40 mineral is what was originally specified. more modern oils (semi or fully synthetic) are not required and are much more expensive. on a high mileage engine (200k+) i'd consider moving to something thicker such as 15W50 or 20W50
quantum or fuchs from euro/gsf is a popular choice
or try the main agent. they are surprisingly cheap for routine service bits
