Battery is now officially dead

[ChrisnChris]

The battery that I thought was going to be OK has now died, the nice man from the AA checked it out.

What should I be replacing it with & where is the best place for my purchase?
He tried the one he had but it was too big & said I needed a "072".....that means absolutely nothing to me.

Thanks.

Thanks, was it this one?
My current one (072) is a tight fit and this one (096) is considerably bigger.

Just as an update to this, I replaced the battery.

The "072" which is the "official" correct size for all cars from 1998? I think, has now been replaced by the "031"
Why the fk do they do that.
The first battery the guy gave me, a "017" according to his list, didn't fit. I had to go back with the original battery to measure against.

Some places still have 072 available.

I am now at peace with the world
