Was it Bradford based before?

Just be careful with Tesco stations, don't assume they all have it! The most convenient one for me advertises it, has spare capacity for it (e.g. 2 petrol 1 diesel nozzle per pump) but doesn't sell it! Both petrol nozzles are standard unleaded.

Check the website first, it will tell you there what they take. Although most take oil its worth checking before making the trip http://www.leeds.gov.uk/residents/Pages/Recyclingsites.aspx

My original order arrived today, had already ordered another bigger one from that seller on Amazon as 100A turned out to be too small (another guy already tried with 100A...) so I can let you know how good that seller is too I think he may be a UK seller but the goods come from China looking at the delivery date. If you are looking to extend cables, see how practical it is to replace... I've just had to extend my alternator cable by <10", but for the £7 of cable I will be replacing the lot...

FYI I ordered that exact item from that seller and it didn't arrive, case opened a few days ago and no response from the seller as yet! I'm still not sure it won't arrive, as an item bought in the UK and posted on the 6th just arrived last Friday... but the lack of response isn't good I got this cable and is copper throughout: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261528822971?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&var=560404793974&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

They are also far more convenient if you manage to pop it when you don't have a fuse to hand! Not like 150A fuses are commonplace!

Prius. Then turbo it.

Sounds like its 2 gauge as my 4 gauge uses 6.7mm hole'd crimps, it is a diesel or petrol? Diesels going to be higher. Standard battery cables for my VAG 1.8T engine were 4 gauge.

Know the feeling! Mine boot relocation is on my Fabia and fortunately a guy has done the same and pretty much followed the same path as me... trying a 100AMP breaker first and finding he needed a 140AMP breaker. I'd always put a fuse/breaker close to the battery in case the cable rubs or in an accident is damaged and shorts out, very easy to get a fire... and my cable is IN the car!

Yes the Toyota cable would be the weak link in terms of cable, but as long as its not weaker than the fuse it will be 'alright'. I'd replace it right up to the fuse box if possible. 0 gauge is over kill though I'm using 25mm2 which is AWG4 in 'mercan money and rated to 170AMPs (150AMP breaker at the battery).
