Have GSF stopped selling batteries?

My Mum phoned me today stating that the battery on her Golf was flat, as the car is five years old it presumably needs replacing so I looked on GSF's website for prices but can't see any mention of a car battery anywhere. Is it merely that GSF won't post them or have they stopped selling them?

I think they have stopped selling them as they can't compete on price. I have had a few from TAYNA batteries, check on Google, there prices seem good.

What do you mean GSF have stopped selling batteries

No they havent....more likely a problem with the website

I will mail it through to head office.

GSF sell Banner batteries = 3yr warranty
GSF own branded batteries (made by banner for GSF) = 2yr warranty
Bosch batteries = between 3 and 4 yr warranties

Price wise, for the quality of product prices are competitive, Banner are OE fit on many vehicles including some of the new BMW's and Volkswagen models

I'm sure they said the didn't sell them in Exeter when I enquired a couple of years ago.

Perhaps Peter but i can categorically say that no directive has ever been issued not to sell batteries

I popped into GSF at Heathrow yesterday and as Vince mentioned GSF do still batteries and at a good price, £25 cheaper than Halfrauds and an extra discount of £13 for being a CCC member
