the alternator on my 05 berlingo, non turbo went today, been on euro car parts and there are several available, ranging from £90 upto over £200.
the cheapest one puts out 70 amps, is this enough?

just thought i'de update this. i went for what i think was the lowest output alternator (70 or 75amp i think) on euro car parts and got it fitted without getting it checked. 3 month on and its still running.
