has the dealer supplied me with the right battery?

I just bought a battery from LR for disco 3. It's not a original and part number is different form what I have seen quoted on here. Part number is LR030213 and manufactured by Varta. So doesn't seem to be a genuine part? Is the part number correct?


Many thanks

Thumbs Up yep, LR just changed the part number in last couple weeks and that's the new one
Haven't looked in the box to see what's in them yet but should be fine

If the original is a Lucas or Squadron derived battery, both companies have gone belly up at least in the marine market which I assume will be the same as automotive. Varta and Victron are the two manufacturer's of choice for us now.
