London is a relatively large area, can't you be more specific?

I have about five battery chargers and three sets of jump lead, and a booster starter thingy. No use to you as I don't live anywhere near London.

But anyone who has a car should at the very least have jump leads....my sets live coiled up underneath the spare wheel in both of my cars. So at the very least buy a set of jump leads. I also keep a spade in the back for when it snows (and for burying the dead bodies of those who I offer a jump starts to

).

If you are going to buy a charger, may as well fork out on a intelligent one (like a CTEK XS800 or Optimate); that way you won't wreck your battery by undercharging or overcharging.
