    Hi guys,

    My battery has died on me and I am wondering if anyone knows where I could get a good value replacement. I have a 97 Starlet so it has a smaller battery (size wise not power) than you normal car battery.

    thanks

    eBay - I'm sure you'll be able to work something out re postage.:D

    Seriously though, have you tried Halfords?

    You would be better off calling into your local motor factors where it should cost you no more than €45 for a new battery and if you ask nicely they will even fit it for you for free.

    Depends where you are of course. Northside I recommend Consort. They are in Drumcondra (beside Tesco), Glasnevin Avenue (beside chipper near Martin's pub), and in Artane (not sure of exact location - check phone book). I'd be surprised if you could beat their price anywhere tbh.

    Not your ornery onager
