Car Batteries
Car battery problems are one of the major contributors to car breakdowns so it's important that your battery is in good working order. We supply and fit for free (optional) an extensive range of high-quality, low-cost used car batteries with prices starting from just £25 (including exchange of your old battery).
In addition to the most popular 12v battery types such as 027, 063, 075 and 096 battery replacements, we also stock start stop and AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) batteries. Choosing us for the car battery you need presents significant savings versus buying the same battery new. Our replacement car battery stocks include leading car battery manufacturers such as Bosch, Exide, Varta & Yuasa.
Just because we sell cheap car batteries doesn't mean we compromise on quality. Every battery for sale comes tested, fully-charged and with a free 12 month peace of mind warranty.
If you would prefer to buy a new replacement battery we have Katana and Shield batteries in stock.

Battery Care and Maintenance
It is important to check your battery regularly to avoid potential problems. Most battery problems occur through lack of maintenance or when they have come to the end of their life rather than from manufacturer faults. There are several things that you can do to take better care of your battery:
• Disconnecting the battery if not using your vehicle for a long time. This will prevent damage
• Signs of a black coating building up can indicate overcharging
• Make sure that your battery leads are properly fastened and that the battery is fitted correctly
• Batteries may lose functionality by the end of their guarantee period (often 5 years), so it may be worth considering replacing the battery as a measure of preventive maintenance
• When you replace a battery make sure the new one has as high a specification as the original
• Make sure that your car's electrical system is charging at the correct rate; both undercharging and overcharging reduce battery life
