Alternator is a fairly standard MGOC one - does the job OK. Due to the dodgy fusebox, the heated rear window switch is permanently live - to my embarrassment on numerous occasions I've left it on overnight and the battery is dead as a Dodo in the morning (not even enough juice to light the LED interior lamp). After a jumpstart, by the time I've got to work (25 miles) the battery is fully charged and back to strength. I usually have a 'routine' when I stop, where I check all the switches but on occasions I get distracted and forget!

I'll check the lights thing in the morning.
