Hi,
I am looking to replace one of my N70EXL Exide Extreme Batteries. I am down to $203 at this stage of my search. Anyone have any ideas where a better price might be. ?

Try Alco Batteries at Wingfield. I have an account with them, and haven't been able to get close anywhere else. I don't know if they sell Exide, but they will have the equivalent or better.

I paid about $168 last week for same from Challenge Batteries, but that was in Osborne Park in WA.
But it should give you an idea how much they're available for.

Barry, from previous experience you'll struggle to beat PETER & RICK'S AUTO WORKSHOP at Glynde. Cheers

jdwynn,

I should opolagise firstly. Ii think I may have called you Peter in my earlier reply. Sorry.

Now the good news. I have ordered my new Exide Extreme N70EXL from Peter and Rick's, their price was $163 My best price todate from one of Adelaide's well known auto shops was $203, Quite a saving.

Thanks to you, and the power of the Forum.
Regards Barry

We haven't purchased one for at least a year but bought my last two from Don Kyatt- they usually give club discount if you're a member of something and are always well priced. Otherwise Supercheap often stock them too but not always for a discount price.

I think $203 sounds pretty good personally.

Barry,
I replaced all my battery in my cars, trucks and machines with Cat batteries and find you can't get better value for money. The battery I bought for my patrol is a 880cca and cost me $113 plus gst. You can get them from any Caterpillar dealer. Cheers Mick

Cel-tic Batteries at Salisbury, next to Bridgestone, near Holden.
Be cheaky and ask for Holden employee discount.

Hi All,

Following advice from forum members, I purchased my Exide Extreme N70EXL battery from Peter and Rick's Auto Workshops at Glyne in Adelaide. My earlier quotes for same battery were $220 and $203. Mine cost me $163. I can't believe how much I saved, simply by spending 5 mins on the forum. I suggest that other members check out this business, that advertise OLD FASHION SERVICE, and THEY REALLY DO PROVIDE IT.

THANKS ALL, BARRY
