Default Brake Fluid for post-2006 XJ8?

In the process of changing pads and rotors for my 2006 XJ8, I realized I forgot about the fluid. Everyone says to change the fluid every 2 years and I found this:

and this:

Thing is, the Shell stuff doesn't seem to be sold in the US, and I'm not finding much info about fluids on this forum either...maybe the rest of you have been forgetting as well?

What is everyone putting in these days?

Default I roll with NAPA DOT 4

I use the correct Pentosin in my A8. And the NAPA fluid in everything else.

I use Pentosin Super DOT4 in our '04 XJR. O'Reilly's and AutoZone carry it, but you may have to have them order it.

I also use Pentosin Super DOT4 in my 2008 XJ8 which I buy from O'Reilly's.
