The BOSCH version (5 year warranty) is way cheaper in COSTCO at about £58 including VAT.

Just my opinion but fell out with Bosch batteries not like they used to be. Yuasa seem to last and have stood the test of time we change alot of OEM Yuasa batteries that are 10+ years old and a majority are only changed due to the electrical requirements/needs of modern day diesels. Think the old saying you get what you pay for still applies.

Only problem I had was when my car was in my garage for for more than 4 weeks would charge battery again. So I bought a cheap one this time, and lasted about half that. And now it's going back to supplier last bout 6 months.
