If you have a local varta stockist they have a battery that fits the tray, but the terminals are reversed, so your cables may not reach. I have one on my cross flow but have relocated my tray so not an issue for me. Product code is Varta YB60-N24L-A (530-030-030) 12v 30Ah motorcycle battery.

Well, when the battery in my 245bhp Vauxhall 16v powered 21 needed replacing, I used a Lawn Tractor battery, with no ill effects. It was mounted in the boot too, and it always turned the engine over with alacrity.

Should add that it cost ~ £40.00

lawn tractor battery is just fine. It might not reach the same Ah (ampere hour) as the banner, but it will not be far of. And they come with the right terminal arrangement.

Is a lacrity better than a starter motor then? Give us the details - don't keep it secret.

Lacrity's do the same job as the old fashioned starter motor, they are just the modern alternative and they weigh substantialy less. Are you still using that out of date starter motor then? I thought everyone had a lacrity now, especially on a K engine!
