My battery is like a kipper in the summers sun.

So I have looked at Halfords who want £60 for a 3 year warranty or £75 for a 4 year warranty.

Any one know any where online thats sells reasonable batterys?

Are there any normal motor factors near you, they're probably cheaper, but won't be available online.

Batteries are quite heavy - you'll pay a fortune in postage costs.

Halfords batteries are really bad. The amount of customers we have had who went and bought a Halfords one AFTER WE ADVISED THEM NOT TO!! who in a matter of weeks came back saying their battery was f'd is really quite astonishing.
