Hi

I don't trust the Halfords battery choose- which do you recommend?

Thanks

This is the one i ordered a few months ago and it works and fits well: https://www.tayna.co.uk/car-batteries/bosch/s5008/
Still worth checking the size of your current one to make sure it's a direct swap.

When the battery in my 3.0Si died while my Indy was attempting to diagnose why I was getting an amber EML he replaced it with an Exide as he said that was what the OE ones were - which makes sense seeing as they were built in Spartanburg!

I have a Bosch S4 type 110 waiting to go in later/at the weekend...it’s still got it’s original battery in and it’s flagging now!!

If not being used as a daily drive - also consider a charger ( I have a CTEK MX5 5.0) in order to preserve the new battery.
