Daughter just bought her first car, the previous owner actually said the battery was tested and will need replacing. First week she owns it the car won't start and it was the battery.

I was at work and her mum called me telling me the car won't start and RACQ are on the way. The next call I get is that it was the battery (no surprise there so no worries) and it has been replaced by RACQ, for $220.

At that cost it better be made of gold because the battery in a 98 model Barina is not very big. I could have replaced for half that cost.
