Thanks Neil. Currently £121 there (plus delivery) and £129 at Halfords with a 5-year guarantee.
Best price (from a big-name supplier) I can find online (delivered) for Bosch is £120 for the S4 and £140 for the S5 (Silver, 5-yr guarantee). PS Any thoughts from anyone about the relevance/value of AGM (Silver Advanced Glass Mat) type batteries for a car that is not used that regularly? I've read that there are advantages in a lower self-discharge but equally that you need a different/cleverer charging system to avoid over-charging.
