hi there save your money goto your local scrap yard i paid 10 plus vat for a brand new battery. you get people that crash brand new cars so they take the batterys of them and sell them on

thanks for all the info ..

i have decided to buy a battery from my local parts people ..

with discount comes to £30 , not too bad i suppose

i know scrappys will be less, but would just be my luck to by one not suitabe or damaged and waste my money

and i know paul sugested brown brothers. i may use them for my fiat 500 battery .

as i am sure your awre the car is now a runner , yipeeee after  ( john) darkhorse came and paid me a visit
