Have you ever considered a Delco battery? I know they're not everyones
favorite battery but they do have one very nice feature: they're
completely sealed. I only wished that they had been available back when
I owned my Healey. Virtually everything in the trunk was rotted away by
fumes from the battery. They're also nice for VW bugs (and no doubt
Audi) owners with the battery under the seat. If nothing else, they're
convenient when the battery is located in a hard to get to place.
