Anything that has a high CC (cold cranking) more the better. My disco has something like 720cc & my 90 has 810cc.
Just as long as it fits in the battery tray.

Ive just got standard Disco battery and mine always starts first time even in -10 last year. Must be something else causing your problem. Europarts are doing 630 cca batteries for £56 if thats any use.
I'd go for more than 630 cca's,
I got a tractor battery from my local agri supplier with 1000 cca's for £65, starts first time every time

Your not wrong in the standard bit, as said in another thread 580 CCA 069 or 072 was fitted when D1s left the factory and that worked.
My recent replacement is a 610 and turned over my engine last winter ok even after standing for 5 days you only need a battery for starting.. if it don't "we have a problem H"

Right! If it fits and the terminals are the right way round go for it.
