Frequently asked questions

It depends on the generation and engine: there are 2 compatible batteries in total, from 45 to 45 Ah and 300 to 400 A of cold cranking. The best sellers for this model are Car battery Varta B20 Dynamic SLI 12V 45Ah 400A, Car battery Varta B24 Dynamic SLI 12V 45Ah 300A. With your plate we tell you the exact one in seconds.
Between 50.80 € and 81.40 €, VAT included, depending on capacity and technology (lead-acid). Start-Stop versions (AGM or EFB) sit at the top of the range because they withstand many more cycles.
By the registration year: Mini II (1990-1994); Mini I (1990-1994). If your year falls in the overlap between two generations, tell them apart by body type (hatchback, estate or coupé) or use the plate finder, which settles it with no doubt.
On most versions, yes: disconnect the negative terminal first, then the positive, release the clamp and fit the new battery in reverse order. On Start-Stop models or cars with battery management (BMS), register the new battery with a diagnostic tool so the ECU adjusts charging.
Standard delivery to mainland Spain and Portugal takes 1-2 working days; other EU countries 4-7 working days. Each product page shows the exact lead time and whether express delivery is available.

How to know which battery your Austin Mini takes

The quickest and safest route is to enter your number plate: we identify the exact version, its engine and the battery fitted at the factory, with no room for error.

Another route is the vehicle paperwork: the registration date places you in one of the generations listed. In the overlap years, body style is the detail that separates them.

As a final check, look at the battery currently fitted: the label shows capacity (Ah) and cold cranking amps (A). Always replace with equal or higher figures, never lower, and keep the same dimensions and terminal layout.
