VW Polo - Car Battery - Drivethru

HI, I ordered a Napa NPAAFB027N from National Tyres and they have fitted an Exide AGM EK600 60ah. I'm just after a bit of advice as to whether there is any difference in quality. I'm thinking I will contact their customer services as the order is clearly printed with the Napa battery details and 5 year guarantee and it's a different battery fitted. Thanks.

You’ve done well. The exide is a much better battery than the Napa .

Really? As reading reviews and comparing prices the Napa looks to be the better buy.

Many VW Group models have Varta batteries as OE.
