yeah, happened to me, a new fully charged battery will last 200miles, an old one will last 20miles probably!

Nope, either the battery is well and truly dead or your altenator has packed up. If thats the case then your car will only run as long as the battery is charged so about 10-15mins... Best to test the voltages if you can...

Battery light is on in my dash stayed on in a 5/7 minute journey, could it just mean it needs re-charging???
