    might be worth a call to Maxiparts (aka Queensland diesel spares) as they were selling Maxus brand N70zz for less than $90.

    Cost difference between Britpart and Genuine seals: £2.04. Knowing that your brakes won't fail at any moment: Priceless.

    It's Their own brand battery it would appear.
    They supply the transport industry so I would it should be of reasonable quality.

    Good idea - get the battery load tested. It does sound like something else - possibly the starter solenoid (did it click when you tried to start it last night). or it could be a loose wire or dodgy ignition switch. Start with the battery and terminals.
