Sorry not as yet...life getting in the way
BUT
she starts no issue if we flick the battery isolation while key is ON...
I've got my Ti in for Mania in a few weeks for a million jobs it seems, will see about getting her to see David too
Maybe I'll get a chance this Easter weekend!

Hard wire the battery. I.e. remove/bypass the isolation switch. See if that solves the problem.

Pretty obvious what the problem is from the last description.

Well...so to finish the saga
She went to Mania, with the please sort the weird starting issues.
David had her for a few weeks and....new battery!!!
She so far starts perfectly!! Isolation switch still in place.
I do not believe it!!

Dodgy batteries always give weird starting issues. Always the first port of call.

Same here, so far so good
The issue was it continued despite me having two MX5 batteries - and my Ti started fine on both!! So batteries were discounted pretty quickly, incorrectly
