Car batteries are fine for charging if you don't run them flat, or expect them to start your car. I race weekly thought the summer, so it gets plenty of cycles. Every year I've expected it to fail, but it carries on fine. When it eventually fails, i'll buy a new one for my car, and do the same with the old one.

Been easier to say you agree with me, they don't like deep discharge...
If op is buying one or another, then a leisure battery is the way to go.
