Ever find yourself stranded on the side of the road with a flat car battery? We sure have! While the Dubai skyline is lovely to gaze at when waiting for roadside assistance, it still is a massive waste of time.

Luckily, 800-Battery not only rushes down to wherever you are in the city, they also test the battery, check the vehicle’s charging system, and give you a detailed test result which summarises the condition of your car battery. This is definitely a number everyone needs on speed dial!
