Battery type
Hi all,
I'm sure this subject has been done to death but need to know if a Red Top 8 battery will be able to cope with starting the engine ? the car
will have an electric reverse but it will tragically fall off !! after IVA so will the small battery be man enough to get it through the test.

Odyssey PC680 for me everytime... can get them about the £85 if you shop around and only weigh 7kg!
It's Evolution Baby!

Doesnt matter too much really. If your really worried, just push the car back for now so the only time the reverse will be used is in the IVA test.
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

ive got a 10ah redtop battery, or might be 8, its fine.
just make sure you look after them, its easy to overcharge a small battery, ive got a decent charger by learning the hard way.
