Hi guys and girls really need your help!!

On Saturday I went and collected my 180 from Somerset. I took jump leads n battery pack with me as the car had been sat dead for past 4 months but started first time...drove it all way back from Somerset to Devon,got home locked car and went indoors.

But when I came back out grab my stuff,the car wouldn't start again so presumed my battery was fried!! Yet when I took key out the ignition my alarm started going off :/ my dad said this could be because the battery is dead and has no charge.

So I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestion on what battery to go for next as I see there's plenty different choices out there or if anyone else has had this problem and could help me out at all?

Cheers everyone

Go and get a Bosch, Varta or similar from your local motor factors, most good ones come with 3/4 year warranty now. Just whatever you do don't buy one from Helfrauds unless you have deep pockets! Can't believe how much they get away with charging.

There a lot cheaper on the trade card.
