Well, it certainly appears that it is ATF that you want.

Very odd that it uses ATF, it being for autos and all. I certainly did not use this in mine.

Lots of manual boxes use ATF, including the T5.

if it's the rover box, use syntrans

easy to fill by feeding a pipe down next to the gear lever and pouring in from inside the car
