what battery for cerbera

[danfrith]

Hi Guys,
What is the correct battery for my 2000 4.2 cerbera?

672?
072?
075?

I have had all kinds of different replies from companies that sell batteries.

Cheers

Dan

I’ve just recently changed my battery - although the 072 and 069 are the ones I believe that fit. (Mainly the lugs to go under the wing) I can't remember the make - will check – I bought from ATS, ₤60, was slight wider (longer when fitted in the cerb) meant I had to remove the plate that held it in place – consequently filled holes with silicone. The battery cover is a little tight, had move the main power cable around

The one I bought had 550 cranking amps – starts with loads of power, and 3 year guarantee.

Hope this helps

Well i did'nt reset anything, and it seems to work OK i.e it starts and it moves and still goes very fast

Word of advice for the battery - simply take your old one in with you and ask for an exact replica in terms of shape, measurements and power. Or better still, just get you local indie TVR garage to do it for you
