If you had to add battery acid then it should be good to go straight away.

I thought that I would ask the question just in case it's a faulty battery. Thanks

I guess for mail order a charged battery would be a potential fire hazard.
Good luck with the charge up:smile:

We stock the nice rubber cased ones and if we send them they go out dry, no question!

Do you also stock 77Ah with these dimensions 215/169/191mm?

Guy's, just to let you know my problems turned out to be the starter motor bush worn out & not making a good connection. Once I repaced the bush the car started up first time & probably didn't need a new battery as the old one was fine too
