It's back!

Returned from the garage today!18 days in my ownership and half of that time spent in the garage!! New battery and alternator! Running as sweet as a nut!
Don't think the mechanic had a great time! Over 8 hours to change it and a new belt thrown in!!

Odd as if the alternator failed, the battery was killed in minutes, being fully drained until the RR stopped => mandatory new battery as it will never charge up properly again.

Why they removed the new battery they fitted, before fitting the alternator was obviously a cash saving exercise!!
