 Ford Focus II - 05 2.0 New battery - is calcium type worth it? - henry k

IIRC my 98 petrol Mondeo has the same engine.
Silver calcium is the one for mine due to the charging system.
I needed a replacement a few days ago. I fitted a type 100
It has a bit more grunt ( Its what we sell for Transits) but I wanted a replacement instantly and was unsure if silver calcium was the same as calcium.
It cost £85.

The previous Varta lasted 3 years and two months. :-(
