I reckon cold weather could be something to do with it, this morning they didn’t come on and when I turned the ignition on I got a message ‘excess drain on battery’ or something similar?!?

Actually thats not bad, how much was a tank of petrol out of interest?? Intrigued to see difference compared to a tank of diesel cost wise.
