Jono, please accept that I am not an owner of Landrover any longer. So I normally do not participate anymore in this excellent forum, but visit from time to time out of pure interest.
The your questions: Q 1 - yes for both cars. If they have a high milage, use one liter 2T-oil for the first two or three tanks to speed up the cleaning of the engine-components (removal of soot-deposits). Thereafter, the dosis of 1:200 will do.
Q2 - I assume that New Zealand has similar climatic conditions as Western Europe. If this assumption is correct, I recommend Mobil 1 0W40 full synthetic, or alternatively Mobil 1 5W40.
All recommendations are my personal opinion/experience and are given without any liability.

Can I ask if anyone is doing this, and if it has been okay for them?

It does make sense to me, and have bought oil today, but would like to check there has been no negative experiance.

Even if it is only used in the winter for easier starting I think it could have some benefits.

Somebody I know who had a grey LR before buying a new one did it, found not much difference at all

but lots of others have reported good results to using it, and continue to do so, personally I have better things to do than measure out oil when filling up just to make no difference, or a slightly quieter engine Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

I honestly don't know what to say appart from cross your fingers and pray it cheap to fix

check the detail of the oil as per Yamahas posts

I presume you put it in just prior to a full tank of diesel so it mixed itself in

I would have thought 300ml will have not caused a instant no start mixed in with 65L but possibley a rough engine (but that's just me guessing) Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Does it say anything like this on the bottle Question

You are most welcome, CK.
I would use any of the two 2-T oils, whichever I would get cheaper.
You can also use the Mobil Extra 2T.
Important is, that those 2T-oils should comply with JASCO "FC" or ISO L-E "GC" or "GD", which should be written on the bottle. All 2T-oils as per these norms burn with an ash content of less than 0,05%.

It was idling rough after i put it in. could this be engine oil ? It does say suitable or pre-mix on the bottle though.
