I'm having some work done on the Chimaera and thinking about getting the battery replaced at the same time (I have damaged my back in the past doing this myself). It is a 2 year old Bosch I think. The car gets light use and is on a trickle charger. Should the battery last a lot longer than 2 years?

Typical battery life is usually 5 years or more, so I reckon yours should be fine - especially if kept charged.

As the Doc says; You should get at least a couple of more years yet.
