Some would say owning a Cerb is a potential fire hazard wink

Whilst on the topic of batteries, I just replaced mine today with this from Euro Car Parts (easy to return under warranty compared to buying online) - http://www.eurocarparts.com/search/444770780/p/hom...

Never had the car turn over so fast when starting up! Old battery must have been super-knackered!

ps. theres not much info on the ECP site, but its 62aH, 550 cca and its a type 078 (Dimensions - 242x175x190) with the battery terminals the correct way round.

The only catch is that you might have to adjust where the battery sits. I have it pushed over to the outside of the car so it clips in where it should with the original bracket but this means part of the +ve terminal is a little hidden, still accesible but it doesn't sit square where it should. Shouldn't be too tricky to adjust.
