Hi I'm new - picked up a 16 reg Ink Blue Tecna 1.6dCi 4wd last week.

I think I've seen someone say on here that one of the cigarette lighter sockets is permanently live and that it's the one under the heating controls on the centre console?

I want to leave a phone charger plugged in (it's tricky to remove this one!) - if I do that with nothing connected to the charger other than a cable, is it going to draw enough to cause me issues starting the car?

Thanks, don't suppose @jonceebee could pop back and let us know whether he leaves this in long term with no ill-effects?
