I bought this (http://www.themgzs.co.uk/vb/showthread.php?p=305750#post305750), 8 weeks ago .... 10/10

The spec is in this link (http://www.batterymegastore.co.uk/product/56219/) ..... took 5 mins to swap over .... got a nice green led on it to indicate charge ...

The Alphaline sealed calcium battery is one of the best car batteries on the market. Features include: Long lasting service life, reliable starting power, unique safety design and comes equipped with a charge level indicator. The battery has a calcium tin-alloy technology, enveloped separator for low electric resistance and advanced centre lug technology. You wont find a better battery for this price.

The generic part number used by most places / factors would be an 075 as the standard unit for the zs. Does most of the Mg/Rover group as the uprated battery but is standard for the V6.
