I believe DOT 5 is getting very difficult to find, DOT 4 and DOT 5.1
have pretty much replaced it and will work just fine in your car.

FWIW, most recommend against DOT 5 in cars with ABS.

NOTE: DOT 5 is a silicon brake fluid, I've been told that European DOT
5 fluid is NOT a silicon brake fluid but a glycol fluid that is the
same as DOT 5.1 sold here. Can someone verify that please?
