Steve Posted February 9, 2014 Report Share Posted February 9, 2014 Battery is past its best . Was thinking about one of thesehttp://www.performancebatteries.co.uk/product/D47/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Stealth- Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 (edited) I know you've already bought one, but I went to halfords and matched one up with the same size terminals, then bought the smallest in size and weight, based on the fact my old battery was producing 300CCA as it was dying and still started the engine.The long and short of it is that I saved about 7kg in weight! Old battery weighed 17kg, new one 10kg.Think of all those extra pies you could of eaten! Edited February 10, 2014 by -Stealth- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Stealth- Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 (edited) I think is was this one at 10.24kg (360CCA)http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_264267_langId_-1_categoryId_165762The recommended replacement one weighs 16.05kg (450CCA) Edited February 10, 2014 by -Stealth- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
