2.5% shouldn't equate to a £10 difference though. Should the prices for VX parts be the same across the board or do they vary?

Join Autobahnstormers.

You will recieve a membership card with a sticker on the back authorising it as bona-fide Vauxhall trade card.

When you go to a dealer show them the card and they will add Autobahnstormers to their list of trade customers (if it isn't there already).

I went to gm dealer for a new battery for my 2.2 petrol. They gave me a GM 70ah one insisting that it was the right type after I asked them to double check. Took it home squeezed it in broke the hinges off the cover that sits on top of it :( :( :( :( the idiots
Went to a different dealer and got a GM 60ah that fits!!!
I assume this is the right one but who knows. My dad has a GM 65 ah on his identical mig :-?
Was less than £40 though with his gm discount so atleast that's good :y
