Car needs a new battery

Do I just key in the existing one into ebay
and buy the cheapest,
or go into town to Halfords,
or is there a better or cheaper battery?

I'm rather sold on Bosch these days since my last one did 11 years, and
know of some others that lasting as well too. If you have a EuroCarParts
handy, they do them at a good price. And mail order too.

Halfords isn't good value - unless you have their trade card.

Their quality doesn't match Bosch either.

They used to sell Bosch batteries as well as their own brand. Their posh
brand is now Yuasu.
