Battery?

[crofty66]

Ok, so i know there are a few threads about this alreay but i dont really have time to search for the answer as i hav an hour to get this sorted before mot time. I have a ph1 172 and i need a decent battery to use for everyday running. bosh silver? or are there any others that anyone would reccomend? money isnt really an object but i cant be bothered with having to trickle feed a red top etc.
Cheers

Bosch silver would be fine. As would any other cheaper variant.
TBH, its not a huge pull from the F4R starting approx 440A iirc. Get to a motor factors. Halfords and Renault are a rip off though. Think you need the 175mm width one

no prob.

i replaced my battery with the cheapest possible battery a year ago... £40 from the motor factors. Just made sure it met the starting Amps... and fitted of course (the 172 battery is smaller). Not missed a beat since.
