Having decided to get at least one new battery to replace one or both of the Delphi Freedom YGD 100860 (110 Ah / 800CCA) “original LR” batteries in my Defender Td5 County Station Wagon 110 (2005), I’ve been searching the internet and reading about what I might buy. The information I have from various forums and many threads) about a suitable battery is, basically, "get the biggest you can fit in and one with a high CCA rating".
I’m looking at, among others, two different Varta Silver Dynamics (110 Ah, 830 CCA // and 110 Ah 920 CCA). However, I'm also getting information from a seller’s site that these are "not suitable for my vehicle". I don't understand why. If there’s space for them in my LR, why wouldn’t they be suitable?
I’m also looking at Numax, Yuasa and Exide Excel or Exide Maaxima.
 
Get two pictures next to each other and play spot the difference

If you think you can make it fit and its a good deal, buy it :)
