Hi John.
Thanks for your advice.
I've had the new battery disconnected now for a couple of days.
Before I tried working on it today, I tested the battery and it's good.
I connected the positive head to see would it start today but it's still the same. There was a clicking sound from or near the fuse box to the right of the batter and no alarm sounding.
There wasn't even any lights going on in the dash (clock etc.)
I disconnected the positive again and I purchased a multimeter.
I Checked the current as you described and it's showing that it's drawing 13Amps at rest (no key in ignition - nothing in the car 'on').
I checked every fuse under the bonnet & under glove box - all are good.
13Amps to me seems massive.
I am at a loss as to what is the culprit.
