Lovely day - Roof down, took the S3 for a spin. Filled it up with shopping bags return home and the boot lid is stuck - its not releasing. First time I have had this problem in 8 weeks of ownership!!

I know you cannot post answers on here but I would appreciate if someone would email my non-work email; rees_al@hotmail.com

Many thanks in advance
No longer S-less!

I don't appear to be having any luck recieving John Mac's emails.

Can anyone else help re info on how to get into an S3 boot without using the electric release.

I am getting increasingly nervous as the day draws to an end

Would the AA know a way in??.... this would be a last resort.

Tried both of the hotmail addresses you gave and it has been returned again.
Note however you are "electrical" and my reply was on a mechanical release therefore may not help unless you can recognise the fitting from what I have said.
Eventually my e mail went to your office !
(you with the old Ideal - Standard company?)

YES! Done it! Thanks Rick E, I found it in the end!!

And thanks to all who posted replies and emailed.

I'd be lost without PH'ers

Morale of this story: when shopping at Homebase don't take your S..... or don't waste your time shopping at Homebase just get on the open road and enjoy your S!!

'Wouldn't have been so quick to help if I'd realised you'd only been to Homebase. As you were so panicked, I naturally assumed you had a case of nicely chilled Bud Ice getting warm in the boot!
