Hi both,

Thanks for your replies. I cleaned up the terminals and fitted the new battery, all was fine for 3 days and then this morning same issue with car cutting out as soon as I tried to turn the wheel and all electrical power gone. Whilst the car was running on the weekend the terminal connection was still getting very hot.

The battery terminals were tight and clean, so alternator is my next point of call. It is going into a local good garage for investigation and hopefully the alternator is the fault.

Will update in due course!
