LHD 2004 L322 battery recommendations

Looking for recommendations on a French registered L322 battery replacement on Td6 2004 L322.

Maybe battery is on other side from normal UK vehicle?

Welcome,I don't know to be honest but I can't see the battery compartment being different size on a LHD. Get the biggest battery that will fit the recommended one is the MF 31-1000 from battery megastore on line but I don't think they ship internationally,I'm sure @Mark Piercy will be able to advise

The battery in our LHD 2011 is on the left as you look at the car which is I believe the opposite side to the RHD.

The only problem I had was that there was no space left for the mega fuse to go down the side of the battery (space now taken with bigger battery).
But I think the earlier (maybe 2004) had a different setup maybe that stupid exploding disconnect thingymebob, but that seems to run across the top of the battery anyway.

Anyway we used this battery and its been fine (couldnt get the MF 1)
I am sure some have fitted that battery to their L322s.

Batterie-megastore is the French branch. MF31-1000 every time. It's tight fit. Less than €100 delivered last time I bought one.

Yip, batteriemegastore.fr
Mf31-1000. Fits like a Lego brick!... Just and you'll notice the difference when you turn the key as the whole cars présence is changed due to the extra booty in the battery!!!
However you'll need to find a strap to hold it down as the mf31-1000 does not have a heel for the holding plate.

Where abouts are you @L322FRANCE?

Used to pass through there on the way to the airport I think? Before the motor sections were built

Yes that is probably right.

Do you know of anyone in our area breaking an L322. After a replacement black interior.

Also any recommendations of where to get gearbox service
