NEW BATTERY REQUIRED


Recommended Posts

Hi Adrian,

welcome to the forum.

I have a Halfords HCB072 in my 4A and it works very well.

They do many others with the posts in different places :o biased rearwards or forwards

 

Not cheap but very good.

 

Made by Bosch.

I have the same as Roger in my 6, it was fitted in december 2012 ( the day before i bought the car) and has performed faultlessly.

 

My car has a power hungry original starter, and ofter requires a bit of cranking to start from cold.

 

So the halfords calcium 072 battery has been tested thoroughly!

Stay clear of Tayna Batteries on the interwebnet, cheap batteries, but just the worst customer service you have ever come across.

They think that their terms and conditions override UK law.

Hi Adrian,

 

I put an Optima Redtop on my 5 (815 cca,100ah) . . . https://www.tayna.co.uk/Optima-Red-Top-Battery-RTS-4.2-P8903.html

 

It's pretty pricey, but the battery has performed very well for me. And I didn't have any issues with Tanya's service myself.

 

Cheers, Darren

Apologies Pete. I'd been searching around for Varta 069 batteries, and that one came up, but I'd missed it wasn't actually Varta. That'll teach me to do things too early in the morning, which clearly 11.47 is :(

I have had a Varta Blue for several years bought from Battery Megastore. Good battery & faultless service.
