MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Batteries sometimes have a date stamp on them - normally month & year So 03/05 would be March 2005 As your car is 2005 & if the battery is original it's doing very well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
