[quit]

been years since i bought a Battery for a car !

thinking is this suitable for my classic, most the week its parked up so its not run for 4-5 days at a time

Yeh probably, not a brand I tried but price reasonable.

Would try your local motorfactors too as they would be easier in terms of warranty returns 3 or 4 yrs & batteries not being used much tend die quick so you may find that useful for a free fresh one in few years ;-)

they want 95 quid so i can get 2 for that lol

Buy the cheap one and a decent trickle charger

might get a solar thingy

rang euro car parts as i need some cheap HT leads to check my missing £23 quid!

 

mentioned a Battery, they offered me a lion one for 60 quid, mentioned the eBay jobby and they price matched! 

[Mr B]

Yep always complain with motorfactors on price & if you sound knowledable ask why not trade rate.

I pay around £50 for decent batteries with no quible warranty & never go budget brands as do't want hassle from !Removed! batts or warranty coming out of my pocket.

If you get a good sealed Battery that you don't have to top up with de-ionised water then it will have decent plates in so that the Battery will hold the charge for longer and last longer. It has a gauge to indicate whether the Battery needs charge which could be handy for you. But you get what you pay for with car batteries.
