Let G be an analytic group and let Aut G denote the group of all topological group automorphisms of G. We investigate when Aut G is almost algebraic. We provide various conditions, some of which are known, under which Aut G is almost algebraic. We also provide examples showing that there does not seem to be a clear and concise way to characterise G so that Aut G is almost algebraic in terms of the maximal central torus in G.
