It's been typical for me.
In one case, I drove out to the cash machine in the next village, then couldn't start the car again. Click (starter relay) - nothing.
Hägar has been going strong on it's OEM / Varta battery for 81 months so far - and he's spending the night outside, all year.
If the battery remains as good as it's been, I'll replace the car before the battery ...
