Sorry what year car, that battery sounds like it should be in a motorcycle or lawn tractor.
It must start the car but being low on cranking amps will be hard on the starter, get a bigger battery.
At least 600 CCA / 75 AH or more.

Are you in the UK?
It looks like the guy just put in the smallest/cheapest battery to sell the car, but as you state it is not large enough to maintain the cars electronics. Replace the battery ASAP to avoid causing damage to the starter, as it will not be getting enough current to do the job/start the car.

The Bosch battery sounds really substantial,
