Battery types

[bobbybrown]

Hi all,
I’ve tried a few different types of batteries in the past, mainly big batteries intended for heavy starting diesels or leisure batteries, the current battery on my nova is about done for and I need to get another so thought I would ask for recommendations on what others use.

Thanks

Hello Mate
I have the Bosch 063, the heavy duty 52 Amp Hour one. It's a hit at £63.

There is a Bosch standard model as well ~£50, @44 AH.

063 is the VW Beetle size as you probably know, so this battery fits the recess in the front compartment.

I have std, 45Ahr one, just as important is cold cranking power. some can have high Aph but crap at turning engine over. Bosh Platinum has a high CCP
