Hi all I'm after a new battery for my RST I'd be interested to hear of any decent deals on them, where did you get yours?
I'd prefer a guarantee be it 3 or 5 years anyone any ideas on whats good and whats not?

Cheers

 

halfods ones are got...i had one on my r5tubo..it lasted for years..it had a light in it to show it was fully charged

 

long as its big and black i dont care
but thts only batteries

 

just get one from halfords or your local motor factors mate, they should specify the right one- imo yor best off getting the diesel battery as its bigger etc- my local carquip had the diesel one there list for the rst anyhow

 

i would* use ford batteries, they outlast the cars so must be good
mym mums esc gti with 140k was on its original battery til a few mths ago

*(if i ever had to by 1 as i have loads from impounded cars we crush)

 

I got a bosch silver and it's been good so far!

 

cheers lads

 

halfords ones are good as if you ever fuck it up you can take it back and they never argue and your replacement battery will start the 3/4/5 year gaurentee all over again!

 

i got one through my work for 35 quid its an ABS one no problems with it
