Battery size 1.9

[Disky]

Strange request I know, but can anyone tell me the size of a battery for a 1.9 ?

Zed arrives tomorrow and need a new battery in it before it goes to the garage to be mot'd, can't find any info on T internet, wouldn't fancy my chances if the mot tester can't get it started lol

I don't know the size but get a Bosch, I had one in the car for six years, let it run flat on many occasions, just recharged it, no problem, never had to buy a new one. Worth every penny OMHO.

Forget to turn the lights when you got home from the pub?

Haha, no
Short drive from home to work and back in the winter months and being parked up all day and all night, they don't like that.

Yeah, I was surprised that my battery went dead when I didn't use the car for 3 or 4 weeks.............Frankie

It was sods law @FRANKIE, I bought the car in December 2009 and we had a pile of snow that I have never seen over here before (live on the coast) so I left it in the showroom until the weather cleared.
When it did, picked the Z up and took it home.
Next day, another pile of snow so did not use the car for 3 or 4 weeks, same as you.
Had to take the battery out and back to the garage is I did not have a charger.

PS. Never had this problem with my Merc's.
