Try one of these http://www.twinpower.co.uk.
They are very good but cost a little more than a good quality heavy duty battery.

Halfords=****e. They are made by Lucas and are regarded by most in the know as the worst batteries on the market.

got mine from halfords

3 year warrentee job, sent the wife she played helpless & one of the nice boys lifted if off the shelf for her, carried it to the checkout, then when paying she asked if he could fit it & dispose of the old one, this lad thogh he was in heaven when she opened the door of the scooby, when she got home I checked it, all was done properly which was nice.

Bet they would not have done that for me

Not sure about the price.... try ringing Halfords . I'd say about £55-£60 from them.
