I normally use Taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanya at Groom Auto in the mighty Borough of Penryn for emergency battery supplies, but I thought I'd go for something a bit less basic this time as I don't think I'll manage to pull-start the Opti with a bit of scruffy old ski rope

Didn't need it - my imagination can be quite vivid. The vid would probably not live up to my expectation, but you may know better


WTF is all this shite to do with battery size?

If you call Energy they will help you with the battery spec, I'll check mine as they came from there.

I know someone who passes the place every morning if it's any help

Thanks James - It's a bit tight on space inside the console, so I went for the Optima, which packs a lot of energy into a small unit, so that should be ok.
