Default Which Shock absorbers?

Had a look on good old dmgrs, but they only seem to have mgzt shocks not rover 75 ones.
Any recommendations of which shocks to get and where? Not looking for the highest range, just something reasonable, but certainly not the cheapest ones!

I bought mine from Endon Services Limited.
Rear Dampers - £62.25 each
Front RH - £62.25
Front LH - £62.25
RR Springs - £84.88 boxed pair.

Rimmers were £90 dampers.

After that you add 20% VAT.
