A bus doesn't need a particularly large battery as it doesn't have a large capacity engine to turn over.
Pre 1975 buses had a 45 Ah battery, and later ones a 54 Ah.

Halfords batteries are some of the best on the market, they're made by Johnson controls (the makers of Varta and Bosch branded batteries).
They maybe a little expensive, but do have the advantage of being replaced virtually any where in the country if you have a warranty problem with it.
