Just the car...well im guessing the battery is flat. But has plenty of OAT in it. Yer froze solid had to prise the doors open with a screwdriver and some cloth!! Trouble is its parked in the shade so gets no sun all day then just freezes more each day!!

120 or 180?? According to the halfords website they are the same but when I had the jump leads connected up today the 180s looked bigger!!

Cold is killing my battery too. Have lost radio stations for last few days, and today I lost the clock preset. Needed 2 turns to get it started too.

halfrauds are allways over priced for batteries. Can get a lucas one with a 3 year garenty for around the 30 - 40 quid make in my local emporium lol
