The battery was in the car when I bought it nearly three years ago, but, apart from these two occasions, has never given any trouble. I am wondering which is more likely; that the battery is coming to the end of its life; that, somehow, moving the driver's seat is causing a rapid drain on the battery; or neither of the above?
I've just though of another possibility; I've been having trouble lately with the windows not working properly - perhaps its something to do with them?
Any suggestions gratefully received.

Well, the battery looks the likely culprit, but, in case it isn't, one problem I had with a battery drain, the drivers electric seat fuse was the problem. Took an auto electrician to find that one out !! Just a suggestion.
