Battery.... deadish...

[raggyman]

Think it is time for a new battery, and well, bit of task. Wondering if it is the same for mine that is in the V8, going to hopefully check out will's car to compare. Had a pretty good run out of the one that is in there, 4 years and counting.

Anyone know of any part numbers, supplier or even better prices?

Pro Tyre in Fareham that was Station Tyres & part of the Micheldever group, excellent prices, just turn up, reckon about £35

My car takes a Mini (original not BMW) battery. Not sure if there is less room under the bonnet because of the V8 + S/Charger. Could be you can fit a larger battery in your car Jase.
I find that I need a new battery every second winter, the heat kills them.
But like Will says, I buy the best one going which is still only £30-40, so not too bad.

A57 HSV is correct, with the induction tubing those with a blower need a reduced size battery, main thing is get the amperage right, I would suggest above 60 amp hour rating, my pda phone batt is dead Jason hence I could not take your call dude
