Does anyone know how long it takes an E30 325i to fully power down after switching off the car and exiting it etc.

I'm talking, time for the ECU and all electricals to switch themselves off.
I know some newer cars can take up to 3 hours to completely power down so does anyone know how long for the E30?

I'll be surprised if anyone does know!! Surprise me people..

I'm pretty sure it's not straight away. Haven't even looked at the drain yet, my brother works at an Audo main dealer and they have a machine you can hook up but the car needs to be completely powered down for it to give accurate readings.
