Battery removal issue
Feeling a bit silly
D3 V8 Petrol, need to remove battery for a charge, not parked near to any mains electrics for a charger.
Managed to get this battery in, replacing a LR brand with a Yusa, and I cannot get it out.
Suggestions anyone?

Putting the bonnet in service position will help, just unclipped the support brackets and the bonnet will open wider. It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

Yup. The battery has “feet” that stick out and wedge into the wall of the compartment. Will need to slide it a bit before pulling out
