Well curiosity got better of me, I tested 150ma drain current from the battery on mine. Car unlocked and waited until light in the boot goes out before measuring. Tested with multimeter at 200ma range in series without any resistors or anything else. Removed the clamp from battery but pressed it to the battery terminal so there is current going to the battery, connected 1 lead from the multimeter to the battery, other to the cable and then moved clamp away from terminal to make the current flow through the multimeter. This was done to avoid high current and possible damage to multimeter at the moment of connecting. Car has factory CD changer, SatNav and working phone and aftermarket alarm.
