Best place for a battery

[R-Sport.]

Yep-

just a plain old brand new Battery- not one that adds 15% BHP because its made of dilithium crystals. just a Battery-

Im assuming they come fully charged.

& yes no funny ' in the engine bay comments'

 

[sbridgey]

Local motor factors are usually cheapest.

 

[guysy]

For a sport? 063 is the correct size I think. Add there discount code on the cheapest and its not too bad.

Yea ECP with the 25% discount (mbclub25) is a good shout.
When I enter my reg it comes up with 075 battery though.
Think I've got an 063 in my car.

 

[robgooch]

I would strongly reccommend Exide, I sell them and they are the nuts. The best money can buy IMO.

 

[guysy]

Yeah I had the pleasure of them sending me the 075, still comes up with my reg too. the 075 is far too big.

063 is correct *I think*! search to check.

 

[robgooch]

Btw 075 won't fit I've tried, defiantly an 063

 

[R-Sport.]

THanks

I will go for a BOSCH one at 49 quid free delivery.

 

[R-Sport.]

I take its pre charged.

 

[Dr HMS Derv Destroyer]

075 is for a dci ! not much room left either.
cant fault the bosch ones, got a 5 year one on order

 

[guysy]

I take its pre charged.

Yeah.

 

[George@RTR_Parts]

You wont go wrong with a Bosch , had a "silver" type in the 172, came with a 4/5 year warranty iirc. Lasted past that , decent batteries

 

[Tony Hunter]

I ought to think about a change, I'm still on my original one.

 

[R-Sport.]

your Mrs said your batteries were low at the BBQ-

[Laine_16v]

My Varta Blue has been reliable

 

[Russ_16v]

I usually buy mine from the local factors, my current one is a 'Charging bull' one iirc, cost me £38, 3 year warranty and even after not starting the Clio for nearly a month it fired up without even struggling.

Had a few of these now and seem to last really well

Mine ran out years ago Steve.

Used to be like an Ever Ready one though.

 

[Nyall]

Just ordered me a new battery from ECP.

​Bosch S4 063 for £43 next day delivered. Not shabby.

Scrap Yard £5 my last one been going for 3 years now.

 

[James1470]

£43.80?! we charge £19.99 for a 063 with a 3 year guarantee at work - pretty much all arnold clarks do them for that. had one on my last car and it was spot on.. we sell tons

 

[DrR]

I'm still using my original one from my 182 in my focus, 8 years old and going strong.
​063 is correct size
