Set my charge limit to the usual recommended limit of 80% and having completed 250 mile holiday trip charged the battery to 80% using a granny charger. Have not used the car for a few days so was surprised when I got into it that the battery percentage had mysteriously increased by 1% to 81%. Previously the car has always charged to the charge limit set - the only difference this time is that it has been unused for a longer period than normal.
IV60 Quartz Grey, suite, panoramic sunroof, parking basic, climate plus pack, comfort seat basic, drive sport, chrome pack, transport pack, assisted drive plus and 20” Vega wheels. ME3 upgrade.
Perhaps the warmer daytime temperatures may have added the extra 1%?

If you charged it to 80% when it was cold and, while not using it, the temperature has increased, it effectively has given you more available charge.
