Needed new battery, checked on what was available in the way of sealed
batteries.
Original battery was $390
Optima which sounds like a great battery was $460 would let me have one for
$405
The above prices may exclude GST.
Mazda came back with a special limited offer of $200 + GST.
Still an expensive battery but I decieded to get one, if it lasts as long as
the one its replacing I will be happy. Old battery dated 1991.
So if your in the market for a new battery Mazdas current price may tempt
you.

Kevan-

My battery died 2 weeks ago - AA Battery service supplied a replacement for
$110 installed inc GST. The old battery was original/1990ish.

P.S. noted a big improvement in performance...
