whats it for ? A normal battery will usually suffice, if your running ICE then i strongly reccomend a red top battery, they are MINT

basically the willy is only used at weekends and i can fell the battery starting to get weaker and weaker every week that i go to start it! so the bigger the current drawn the better it will be at starting?

My williams only gets used 1 or 2 days a week and never seems to sound sluggish when turning it over :?

You must have a power drain somewhere Paul.

Had the FIAMM Premium sealed (80Ah, 720A starting). But the main problem is the heat in the clio kills all the batteries in less 18 months anyway. Have gone back to VARTA 66Ah with 6 nice top-up holes on top.
