I just got a battery for my UK Bugeye WRX, battery size was a 005.

I got a Halfords HCB005 (4 Year Guarantee) which normally is £94.99, I have trade card and got it for £65.80.

If you want me to get you one, let me know. They do a cheaper HB005 as well.

Not sure if same as your car, but would have thought so.

Or just checked Eurocarparts are doing Bosch S4 with 4 year guarantee for £64.90.

that's not going to be cheap, about £200?

I would just out a normal 005 battery in as the r2.7 is still about 11kg.

The tie down straps are to close for a normal battery to fit by the looks of it.
