Lings is a Honda dealer, so if you have to order through them it will be genuine

But will cost you over a tenner inc postage.

Unless you order all your bits from them to combine the postage costs, it's a bit of a p!ss take.

Probably a stupid question but would it be ok to fill my car with oil and start it up for 5 minutes I dont like the fact that its sitting there doing nothing and hasn't been running for a week I dont want the new battery ruined it wont be getting driven I just want to start her up for 5 minutes will this do any harm??

New engine vs sticking a battery charger on.
