725ah !?!?!? Thought you had a D3, not a forklift
725 CCA is not that much - worth measuring the "hole" in the vehicle, and then fit the largest one you can...
watch out for the difference between CCA measured under "DIN", and measured under "SAE", or "EN"....
Only got good experience of Varta's "Varta own name" batteries.... BUT.. Had a Varta "GM" branded battery burst on my D1, and its has made a mess from hell......

SAE & EN are, AFAIK, essentially the same ... and this is the figure we are "used to" in this country... Its the one I prefer, and its the one your original battery is rated under - so I'd stick with that.
900 CCA is an improvement - and 100 Ah is nice too.
Anything on the Tayna website ??

I replaced mine a month ago. I got the Powerline C31-1000 battery from Tayna.

- 1000 CCA (EN)

@gstuart - just found this explanation of the differences.....
http://www.yuasa.co.uk/info/technical/understanding-the-specifications/
IOW - stick with the SAE figures, as the DIN test is out of date, but still useful.....

Check on the Tayna site to see if there's an equivalent from one or more of the other manufacturers, suck as Powerline.
Exide can be considered as a "premium price supplier", you could get exactly the same for quite a few less £££££.
cheers
i have in the past gone for a cheaper branded battery and this is my own personal experience they haven't lasted as long as ones a little bit more expensive
am pleased it's not an AGM battery, lol
the exide is coming out around £85 delivered , 4 x year warranty
me being a sad old git , do like to sit down and read through different specs and not impulse buy

100 Ah is to all intents and purposes able to supply 100 Amps for 1 hour, or 1 amp for 100 hours. Re-written as 1000mA for 100hours, multiplying out, that's the same as 25mA for 4000 hours, disregarding other factors such as "self-discharge" and "chemical recovery".
I don't think you need to worry about those discharge figures for about five and a half months!
The Powerline battery has a 4 year warranty too.
