Same as all Minis and it's up to you if you want to spend reasonable money on a standard battery that will do the job from your local motor factors (not Halfords who sell expensive rubbish).

Or buy some upgraded job like a Pug 306 diesel battery (if it'll fit in the battery well of a Mini Estate?) that will cost considerably more.

You have to be very careful with the height of the battery in the Estate or it will hit the bottom of the seat. Not sure if the Pug one will fit. I'll try to remember to get the number off mine when I'm in the garage tomorrow.

I've had a 063 and a 065 battery in my clubman estate. The Pug 306 Diesel battery, 075 I think, is too tall to fit under the back seat.

I checked mine and it's an 065.
