Default Volvo Amazon Battery Size

Can anyone help me with the dimensions of their battery, also position of connection posts (front or back) and left or right for + and -.

I need to order one today from pavilion batteries in Brighton, but I forgot to measure mine before I left home today.

Many thanks

Grant

Are these pics any help?




I bought it from Halfords the other year and it's as specced for a 240.

I've been told the correct size for an Amazon is 071. You'll get blank looks at the majority of Halfords because you're not asking for a set of PRIZM NEONS OMG YO on finance.

I've found that Halfords are very expensive for what they offer and their only advantage is that they're open on a Sunday.

A good and very reasonably priced battery specialist I've found was in Rochdale called Alpha Batteries - they managed to supply a friend with a 088 battery for his Piazza when everywhere else told him they were NLA!

Get them on 01706 356356. Their prices for delivery are pretty good as well.
