Just picked up an Exide battery for my Classic from Eurocarparts in Wembley for £88 inc vat. Higher CCA than a lot out there and came with a 3 year warranty.

Probably could have got cheaper off the net but I like to be able to take batteries back if there is an issue.

CPC Batteries are excellent.

Battery Wholesaler - Surbiton, Surrey | CPC Battery Services Ltd

They're in Surbiton though. Might be too far sarf.

thank you all for your help and assistance, went to CPC in surbiton,
a pleasant experience, i will join mrgorsky in recommending
CPC battery services, again thanks, shaun.

had a cell go bad on the battery, popped down to CPC, exchanged it with no drama,
a good company to do business with, deffo recommended ..

Yeah Varta were always the best - as long as they haven't sold out and become yet another reseller of Chinese ****.

Varta, Bosch, they are just brand names now.

its a 'no name' battery, and it does crank over well, and if it goes down... i take it back..!

Hi guys,

firstly apologies for hijacking this thread. As you all seem to be from the west London area was hoping that someone could help.

I have a few things i need to fix on my P38.
1, The bonnet latch catch, drivers side, bought another one from Emmots, great service btw, I can’t seem to fit it. Have taken off the front grill, and the panel that is on top of the engine bay that runs across the front of the bonnet. I still can’t seem to get take the latch out, and unplug the sensor. Do i need to remove the headlight.
2, My side lights aren’t working, checked fuse and bulbs, had second hand ones fitted last year some time, from the west midlands, not sure if they have been working since.
3, I changed the bulbs on the speedo instrument panel and damaged the clip to get the plastic surround back in, can this be fixed.
4, Need to change my driver’s side windows regulator, is tis easy or relatively uncomplicated to do

can anyone recommend a good and cheap independent dealer that could take a look at these for me. Alternatively as I am not very good at fixing stuff but am more than happy to get my hands dirty and try a few times. if someone can help me, and show me what I am doing wrong or need to do. I am more than happy to drive over to you. I am based in west London, Harrow/Sudbury and driver a 2.5 dhse.

Any advice tips greatly received and appreciated.

thanks
