Had to buy one myself this time last year. I bought from a local guy for £60. The type was a 097. Not been used much as I am scrapping the car this week. If you live near south coast, you can have it for £25 (Still 2 years warranty left). CCA SAE is 515 Amps and AH(20h) 55 Amps. Platinum prestige.

That rings a bell, 095 or 097, and 'square' terminals
