Brand isn't important as long as its the right 'power' they have flip chart to say which you need. If not look what sort you already have. Off the top of my head its 12v, 500 caa, 60ah, it's advisable to upgrade to a higher caa and ah level, up to 15%.

Try Car Batteries online to get your Bosch battery, as it was cheaper than Euro Crap Parts.
