2005 Other Mazda Models Engine Size unknown Two Wheel Drive Manual 12000 miles

I have an RX8 (not listed above) and the handbook recommends an ehtylene-glycol based coolant with no alcohol, methanol, borate or silicate. Can you recommend a particular make or brand that I might easily find in say Halfords or some such?

Many thanks, Tony Lashley
