Went to start the car Wednesday, no joy battery had gone flat, Had noticed the sync2 was doing some strange things at times, was 4 years old so I replaced the OEM one with Century DIN53LX MF straight swap plug N Play.

Good battery. That is what I replaced my original with.

Damn PK, you had to replace an FN battery already?
Yep Kermi. After about 12 months or so it just wasn't seeming to be right. The dealer said it was fine based on the voltage that the instrument panel said it was. Anyhow I did not believe that and picked up a Century on special at Supercheap. Happy since.

Wow I’ll keep an eye out. I keep mine on a Victron blue smart charger so may get a bit more out of it, but the OEM battery is clearly pretty crappy, so who knows…

Nice company! Spotta a Lancia Fulvia Sport, MGBGT (Minilites 😍) and some yellow thing I haven't seen before :giggle: but the ones down the back have me stumped. Red one's headlights look like Alfa Brera...maybe?

Photographing and taking a look at the mansion behind the hedge 😂
Wait. In Australia nudist camps are called mansions?

Correct, you know your cars😄👍🏻 Lancia Fulvia Sport Zagato, MGB GT, Rocky the Mustang, behind that an MX5 (dwarfed by Rocky 😂) then an Alfa Brera and an MGB roadster.

The Lancia has the unmistakeable look of a machine from what was IMHO the 'golden age' of cars.

The back looks a little like a 365 GTB. Of course it also looks a tiny bit like a Pinto.
