It's been many a year since I was in Plymouth (HMS Fisgard Torpoint - long gone) but I'd doubt there'll be much difference between different yards. They usually go off weight, but expect around £10 per battery

Used to have a C63...
Probably best to give Plymouth Battery Centre at Faraday Mill a call - they may point you in best direction.

My guess is that you were in the services, HMS Raleigh was on the opposite side of the road, all the accommodation was in wooden huts, long ago, (so my nan tells me ;)), It is on that estate that the smart car dealer lists cars for several months that he does not have and gets shirty when you keep ringing up.

Plymouth battery centre is offering 42p per kg, I have two batteries weighing 33.6 kgs = £14.07 ish for the two.

Bought my C216 from there, lots of broken promises, falsified service history, and a car that barely made it home due to knackered batteries

Wouldn‘t go back there again.
Lots of broken cars…. for what I could see when I went there.

I don’t know how he got such high praise as a smart car dealer, he has a main picture of rows of smart cars but not one in stock that I could see, just a load of lemons leaning against the wall out the back, in my opinion.

Sold - 2021 CLA 35 Premium.
For such an insignificant amount of money...does it really matter who pays the highest price?

NB. This is simply my drunken observation so no offence intended. :)

Or driving 5 miles further to get an extra 1p/kg.
