Do I just key in the existing one into ebay
and buy the cheapest,
or go into town to Halfords,
or is there a better or cheaper battery?

Dont trust Halfords. They sold an elderly neighbour a new battery, a few
days later that was also flat. The problem was a loose fan belt!


whats's that got to do with Halfords? they sell parts.


I think they do offer to test the battery for you. Although the battery
could be knackered as well as the drive belt loose.
