Re: Battery
Well according to the write up its the right one and 4 year warranty seems fair. I would however call them first as I often feel that talking to dealers helps get a feel for the type of firm they are.

S5 better for 'cold' starts, and another year on the warranty too......

Re: Battery
Look for a YUASA 019T. That's what I fitted - its cheaper than the Bosch S4 and has more beef.
We sell Bosch and Yuasa, never get many problems with either.

I work for a trade parts supplier. Don't mind trying to help anyone out - but cost of carriage could well outweigh Internet shopping.
