hey mate, well your looking at about £45-50 for a new battery to replace your original one. dunno about putting a larger one in there but if your having a conversion done soon, might as well leave your battery on charge over night, then take it for a long run the day after. might just be the cold weather were getting now sapped some of the power. least this way your not shelling out on a new battery beofre your conversion ;)

I think my old one might be on the way out (slow starting when car has been left but will start fine when driven around for a bit)...

Is it worth getting something like a diesel battery in there from a bigger car (Cavalier or something similiar? Hopefully getting a conversion done shortly so may need a bigger one anyway...

Is it worth buying a Vauxhall one...any idea how much/would it fit...

Cheers.
