Need a new battery

[mankey]

Following the shame of jump starting from a Kia yesterday I need to sort out replacement. What would you recommend for a 997S Mk1? EuroCarParts have quite a selection and although some of the cheaper Bosch batteries are flagged as correct for the car, they only seem to be 70Ah.

I really don't fancy bending over for a Moll if I can avoid it - ECP are even doing a 25% promotion.

ECP discount excludes batteries..
I just fitted a Banner 110 on mine cost me 70+ vat

I just purchased a battery with a 25% discount from ECP two weeks back.

Not according to an order I placed this morning

Bosch Silver tops are good, although there is a confusing array of model variants. But EuroCarParts should be able to point you to the right one. Normally around £100 ish depending on model

Thanks. I was considering this one

Don't need an extensive warranty and it does exceed the spec of the Porsche Moll it's replacing. With ECP discount it's around a third of the price.

I purchased an S5 110 last week using code Battery15.
This code is still valid and gives you 15% discount on all batteries.
So I got the best battery they do for £89, can't complain really

No idea whether it was valid then, but you could have saved yourself even more with NOVCP25


Thanks guys for your views

Mankey that code wasn't valid then.
But why don't they ever advertise impending codes for the next month
I just recieved an email about code RAINY25, valid 4th-14th Nov, it wouldn't hurt sending the code a week or two early Could of saved another £10...

Oh well never mind, it's Friday

At least you saved something anyway
