try charging your battery,you didnt say if it was a 1.3 or 1.7,on the 1.3 there is a hub on the alternator drive at the belt that is bad for slipping resultin in battery eventually going flat,try turning centre of hub with your hand,any movement means it is faulty,to save money remove alternator and tack hub with mig welder if you have one,done loads of these,alternators are expensive.
