Further to my previous questions, 'if' I needed to replace the battery on my weighty twin axle Buccaneer Schooner which battery makes do people recommend. Our battery does not seem to cope with the weight of the van/motor mover and stops midway when manouvering.

I have seen adverts in the CC magazine for batteries specific to motor movers but would appreciate advice from experienced caravaners please.

Caravans leisure batteries are now graded A, B and C. For a motor mover you need the top grade and for a large caravan I would go for 110 amps. Not sure what make is best but I have found those from our local dealer good but not sure where you are so cannot be sure what you will find.
