sorr 0 Posted January 19, 2007 My girlfriends car got written off and with me being a tight Scotsman I held onto the few month old battery. It is from a Clio diesel (62Ah 340/600 according to the Euro Car Parts website). Given my 205, if I actually finish it, will just be a weekend toy and not used very often it makes sense to have a decent battery to keep the alarm going, etc. But will the battery be too much for the ancient and feeble wiring?

Anthony 1,003 Posted January 19, 2007 If it fits, it'll be fine - I used to run an Audi A6 battery in mine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 99 Posted January 19, 2007 (edited) It'll be fine. The electrics in the car won't draw any more power from the battery than they need to work, so using a more powerful battery won't overload anything. In fact it can make the battery last a lot longer as you aren't putting as much strain on it. Edited January 19, 2007 by Ryan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
