The result was poor syncromesh after about 1000 miles, so a lesson hard learned 
What I will say is simple, don't worry about not being able to get the correct oil "instantly", but make sure you use the correct oil for when you do change the gear oil.
Another word of advice, the filler on the manual box is a pain to access with the subframe fouling clear access, so make sure you can slacken the filler, before draining the oil, and use a short length of garden hosepipe with a funnel attached to fill the gearbox.........much easier than using a squeeze bottle with the attached spout

I will give then a call tomorrow to ask if they have the oil in stock. I was just worried cause in the car parts store they told me that usually any car uses 75w80 or 75w90, but I wasnt sure on which one, as autodata tells me to use MTF94.
Thanks for the advice about changing the oil, engine is out atm, so shouldnt be a problem
Thanks for everyone's input once again this forum is superb
After reading all comments, I assume any of this oils can be used on our gearboxes, right?

Which one would you choose? Just in case I can't find the MTF94 from the dealer
