I am using a Century 67EF MF (640CCA) fitted in December 2018. The batter before the current one was also a Century 67EF. No problem in recommending one based on my experience.

I’ve put a Varta D48 on mine, but it would appear that not everyone on here has the pos and neg terminals the same way round. I bought it online at Tayna Batteries. They have a selection tool that you can use to see what fits. I can’t find anything above 60ah that fits in my battery box.
 
Last Century battery I used dropped a cell and boiled, leaving a lot of acid to clean up. My best experiences have been with Panasonic whitish (semi translucent) case units - 7 years on one, 5 on the current one in the Suby. I wish battery codes were more standardized .

Hi,
Thanks does it fit ok in the battery box with the lid screwed down?
 
I just fitted a Varta D15 to mine, the terminals are on the other side, but the cables reached. Thanks to @clive P62 for recommending the battery to me a few days ago.

Hi, For future reference that is an 027 battery with the Positive terminal on the right. If you get an 078 battery the positive terminal is on the left, which suits the P6. All other parameters ie. size and capacity are the same.

D15 Varta Silver Dynamic Car Battery 63Ah (563 400 061) (027)

D43 Varta Blue Dynamic Car Battery 12V 60Ah (560127054) (078)

For more information a guide to battery designations. -

This is a bit late for the OP but could be useful for future buyers.
