Battery

[Glyno]

Bought a replacement battery today from the local BM dealer. Euros 137 Seems a tad steep. Anyone bought one recently in the UK, just for comparisons sake.

The same one costs approx 150 Euro in Belgrade, according to BMW dealer Delta Motors.

Have checked recently price for new battery, but Thanks God, my 1200 GSA started fine today after couple of freezing days it spent outside only covered.
