Battery question
Hello Cesilophiles.
My battery is flat as a pancake and I'm going to get a new one from halfords today. Could anyone please tell me if the Mini Cooper battery is one I can ask for and actually get what I want? I don't know what year mini it would be and think maybe I should just play safe and buy a standard m3 size one. I imagine they won't have a csl oem battery at somewhere so general as halfords. Thanks everyone! Joseph aka Smokey Beer |

Unless your trying to get the weight down,just go for an M3 battery,5 year Guarantee from Halfrauds,go for the Bosch one

I bought an Exide Mini battery a few years ago - still going strong

I would stick with an OEM sized one too unless you do not have a trickle charger or use her infrequently and for short journies.
Why put all that weight back on when BMW have gone to greta lenghts to get her curvy and light - ?? Pip * so Exide one or the original one from BMW |
