Well after 12 years, the battery is giving up the ghost.  Will this one do the job?? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Type-027-Varta-Silver-D15-Heavy-Duty-Car-Battery-63AH-12V-/281528003817?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item418c606ce9

Perfect.  Great price too

That is a good price. Paid 70 for mine but had to get it done sharpish.

Bought the same one (Varta D15) for 57.50 18 months ago. Works a treat, although one of my gauges resets its colour at startup when the rear screen heater is on when it's cold, grrrr.

Must be something in the air, mine was giving up just before Xmas after 12 years service too, I bought one of these

Works well

Mine is a Lucas heavy duty, also seems fine. Cold weather init, batteries hate it.

I changed mine to a Banner as I've used them in the past from GSF 55 yim yams. Although my old battery was a bit sluggish starting but being as it was over five years old it was time to change. To get 12 years service from one battery is epic!

Pretty sure mine was the original, 11 years.

what are the original batteries as mine works mint never died or anything in the yr ive had it its always come to rescue the rest of my cars.. i believe mine is orignal it works well and even after 3 weeks of not starting the car because it didnt have any coil packs on it with the first turn of the key it fired up..
