most batterys have round posts now , I don't think it really matters as you can change the terminals really easy and can pick up a set of round or square cheap off ebay or Halfords

Square in all mine, but then most of them have/looked nearly as old as the car. As above, no big issue whatever it is, adaptors are a few quid
