Battery specification

A basic question, i know. but would appreciate advice on minimum/maximum spec when buying a new battery for a 1990 (LHD) Caravelle 2.1 petrol/injection. I'm in the Canary islands, so low temperatures not really a problem. It hasn't been moved for a few months and the old battery is dead.

Appreciate any advice.

thanks

an 065 is what you want iirc
to be honest the motor factors will have the information in a book and can get you the right battery for the job, if they can't find a supplier who can
Bosch supplier may be most expensive but will be good, and may be price competative

065 as stated

or an 096 (65cca).. which is just small enough to shoe horn itself in
