There are quite a lot of companies who supply batteries via the internet/carrier. Do a Google search for 'car batteries' but when you get to the home page choose the 'van/light commercial' option. Then enter VW Transporter/Year/Diesel etc & you should get several choices of suitable batteries. Pay particular attention to the figure given for ''Cold Cranking''. I used a company in Stockport but I think they have been taken over by another company.

Hasn't this been covered in the wiki?

Basically ANY starter battery that fits... The bigger the better.
