No question, the best on the market is the 95ah Bosch S4.

It even makes my headlights brighter.

Thanks for the link MM, just ordered one, and very reasonably priced for a named battery!. The battery on the bongo that has failed is marked up all in Japanese, so I am guessing that it is the original battery, and has come to the end of its life. Did have a few warning signs with the glow plug light coming back on for a few seconds after starting (first start of the day), and as I am not using the bongo during the week, I guess its just given up!

I take it from another post that the S4 Bosch was a success Paul?

I also need a new battery due to the cold weather. Have tried googling the Bosch battery mentioned above and am getting a bit confused. Can't see the one in the ebay link anywhere (S4008 95ah)
Could someone point me in the right direction?

Glad it's not just me
Seems to be everything except batteries - I guess link has been reused by Ebay
