I'm guessing this is due to the ambient temperatures in Oman, below is a quote from a battery site... 'The optimum operating temperature for the lead-acid battery is 25°C (77°F). As a guideline, every 8°C (15°F) rise in temperature will cut the battery life in half.' 13MY Range Rover Sport Autobiography SDV6 - mine 14MY Range Rover Evoque Dynamic SD4 Black Pack - wife's 99MY Defender 90 TD5, Soft Top Conversion - my toy, and bairns favourite |

My money would be that the battery had been sat around for awhile so they weren't sure that it would start the car, amazed it didn't cause any damage with the power surge |
