Need a battery for the car. Just checking here before ordering from the UK. Is mx5parts the only place to get one?
Thanks
Alan

Hi Robert
I think they need to be Panasonic or westco gel type. Sinuous have one?
Cheers

"they" recommend you use the westco battery to avoid a build up gases in the boot which cause corrosion and can be dangerous. I think it might have been a bigger problem with older batteries that you topped up with water. I just don't want to take the risk as the boot rotted out if my old car.
