| I paid about £38 for my new one at Halfords! Is it worth putting a higher ampage battery on these cars, considering they always seem to be their limit considering the amount of stuff on them? |

Always worth while having some spare capacity in my view. especially with automatics. ------------- Regards Simon 1985 728i SE E23 2004 Audi S4 4.2 Quattro Cabriolet

ECP & GSF both sell batts at really good prices, as do other motor factors. Rob - do you visit the ECP branch in Rayleigh? I use the GSF Chelmsford branch - obviously they don't keep E23 bits on the shelf but their main warehouse in London sends the rare bits out to the branches in a day or two. for an E23 a minimum 66Ah batt is required - the battery tray is not that big so you won't get a massive E32 80Ah monster to fit. but knowing Rob he will find a way!
