3.2 Battery size
« on: 16 January 2013, 10:39:07 »
Quick question: Anybody know what size battery fits a 3.2? Hellfrauds site suggests it's an 065, not that I'm prepared to pay their prices. :o

Need one quickly so it'll have to be the motor factors. Just want to double check the fit.

I have Halords TC and I get 10-15% at CAF :y

The Jag battery should have been over a ton at Halfords and got it for less than £80 :y

I have a Halfords trade card Kevin, which saves about 40% on batteries. If you are up this way, I am more than willing to get one for you. I'll check the price and let you know. HTH

Edit: didn't see Guffers post, and he's nearer to you. :y

I just wondered if 065 was the correct size. (not 65 Ah ;) )

Guffer, is that the CAF club discount card? If so, I have one, and CAF is the closest for a lunch time jaunt...

The GM 70AH battery will fit and the battery jacket still fits it  :y

Anything larger and you have to loose the jacket.

CAF did me a Yuasa professional range "100" size battery in the end. 70Ah, 650 Cold Cranking Amps. Ought to do the job. ;)

The jacket fits over it too. :y

£70 inc.
