Replacement Battery 1990 200 TQ Follow-Up

[james accordino]

I've used that same battery in both Audi's for more
than 5 yrs.  Good battery, easy fit as you mentioned
and their warranty is excellent.  Even when my kids
killed them by mistake.(leaving the radio on over a
long weekend and leaving a reading lamp on for a
month).  No questions, no problems.  Here's your new
battery.
