Best Battery?

[kerrymaxwell]

Hi, my car battery is dead and I'm just wondering if anyone can recommend what type of battery I should replace it with? Hope someone can help

The biggest one that will fit
I put a huge one for a Lexus into my first one.
The standard one is a joke.

A joke maybe but the small battery that it comes with works plenty fine - even through all of the weather we had over the past 2 years. I've replaced my 'Micra' battery once in the past 12 years of driving my FTO.

I've even had that tiny battery run an uprated stereo, amp, speakers and 2 x 10" subwoofers without an issue.

Buy whatever suits you best from a cost perspective.

I upgraded mine, it went dead while I was away in NZ and no matter how many times I left it to charge overnight, it wouldn't retain its charge. So I put in a bigger one, just make sure the lugs will fit as the Jap lugs are different to European.
