Title: New battery
Post by: debsie on 11 November 2004, 21:32

Hi
We've had the golf for a couple of months and now it's winter and we are not using it much the battery isn't holding its charge. How much should I spend and any advice on brand?
Thanks :-\

If you can find quantum xcel, then thats what i'd recommend. I got one in 1994 for about ?40, and its still going fine, just! Halfords will be more expensive, but probably easier to take back if it fails in the guranteed time.
