Will a Varta D47 actually fit my car or is it just a generic recommendation?

    My battery died on me this morning in the office car park and now I’m scrambling to figure out what to replace it with. A colleague told me the Varta D47 is pretty much the go to for cars like mine, but I’ve been burned before by a shop that sold me the wrong size and I had to go back twice. I drive a 2017 Corolla and the terminal layout seems standard but I’m not confident enough to just order online without double checking. I found a Varta D47 compatibility overview for Dubai drivers that at least explained the dimensions and which models it suits, which was more helpful than the vague answers I got from a couple of shops, but I’d like to hear from anyone who’s actually running this battery in the Dubai heat. Does it hold up over the summer or does it fade after a year like some of the cheaper ones? And how do you verify the fit for yourself rather than trusting the guy behind the counter?
