Hi All,

I've got a MK 1 93 Cabrio with a DEAD battery - not used the car for a few weeks and after jump starting last night and driving for a good 20 mins at 60k's + it still wouldn't start again - questions is:

I bought another battery a few months ago from autobarn for about 100 bucks but someone stole it from my carspace, i called up today and the lady said it would cost about 180 bucks!?which is a fair bit more - whats a fair price for a battery these days?

Also does anyone know the type / code of the type of battery i need, i thought it was just a normal 12v thingy

Any help is much appreciated

Gary
