It'll do it, but its down to the make up of the battery. A car battery is only meant to give a boost to start your car, so it has thinner lead plates in, when you discharge it, the plates errode more and it won't last as long.
A leisure battery, is meant to be 'deep cycled' so its supposed to be discharged a lot and brought back up, because of this, the plates are thicker so they don't errode as fast.
So, a car battery will do, but might not last as long, but you can pick up a leisure battery for 58 quid which will last longer.
