Cooper S Flat Battery!!

Hi Guys,

My friend Jamie had a flat battery yesterday in his MINI. As the battery was flat and the battery is in the boot, how would you suggest he gets to it to jump start the car?

I'm interested to hear your comments / solutions

All the best

Jase

Under the bonnet you will see positive and negative points for your jumper cables.

They are situated to right side of the engine compartment.

Could be sarcastic and say tell him to read his handbook but I wont

Hear is the recommended way to start with a flat battery. Apparently if you attempt to bump start a car fitted with a cat you can Kna£"$er it up so dont bump start

Ah ha... cheers boys, thought there must be a way. I'll tell him... and I'll tell him not to be lazy and read the book.

Well done RVW for the quick scan. You are an asset to MINI2 *mwah*!!
