Do not use synthetic oil in this vehicle's engine. The "additives/detergents" in synthetics will cause leaks.
Generally, a good 10W-30 conventional (mineral) oil is warranted because the engine is "loose". I don't know about synthetic "blends", but I would never recommend them in an older engine.
If you are in a cold region, then consider 5W-20. Change the oil and filter every 3,000 miles.
Pleae also consider other expert solutions.

if you have just bought the car change the oil and the filters asap on the grounds that the oil and filters may have not been changed for quite a while also change air and fuel filters also and grease any steering and tail shaft joints check brake fluid and water levels also and for any leaks around brakes gearbox and differential then every 5000km change oil and every 10000 change filters and spark plugs start with 4liters of oil let settle check level and keep topping up until close to full mark fill oil slightly under than over too much oil will build up pressure and burst oil seals in motor the more expensive the oil the better the quality its a bit like scotch whiskey best of luck glenn.......
