Default Shock absorber replacement recommendations 2009 D5 AWD

Had the annual safety check on the XC60 today (NZ Warrant of Fitness) and the XC60 passed OK. However the inspector commented that one of my rear shocks was just starting to show signs of a leak, and he recommended that I replace them both.

I guess at 11 years and almost 200,000km value for money has been obtained from the current shocks.

I don't drive the XC60 aggressively so don't need ultra sporty shocks.

Any recommendations for replacements ? I'll do both the rear shocks and the front struts.
