Yes, the battery of choice. Have the 900CCA in mine, which measured at 975A

Not often you get more than you pay for.

I have fitted

the VARTA AGM ones to both the D3 & my youngest daughters FL2
not the lowest cost - but so far faultless. BREXIT - done properly.

Save the Dipstick Flagbearer-keep it simple, less likely to fail campaign-agenda items:Starting Handles, Acetylene Lamps.

D3 HSE-perfectly formed, passenger friendly...has real DIPSTICK
Jag XK-but sadly no DIPSTICK...HUGE design fault
FL2 has DIPSTICK..."real comfort in rear seats"
VW Golf wondermobile (?)..has real DIPSTICK
Morris Minor..original DIPSTICK technology..and a real KEY.
