Ditto!
I went to Halfords on my way home yesterday to get the battery checked. It was showing just 290A (instead of 900A), so definitely due for a change. In the end I had it replaced there and then. With a 5 year guarantee and free fitting (which can be a really awkward back-breaker in the D2 '8), I decided that was good enough for me! 
Thanks everyone for your input on this.
