Help! - new owner throws keys in boot and......
Discussion
Having picked the car up on Monday evening as a first time TVR owner, I've taken my jacket off, thrown it into the boot, closed the boot (gently) and realised I can't get back into the car!
I've got until 5.00pm to work out how to open the boot from the outside - I think I've seen stuff about getting in when battery's flat, but haven't a clue how to do it?
The car's a 1991 S3 in dark blue and in good nick, I think. You're all right about the smile factor - the GOG stands for "grumpy old git" and I might have to change it - assuming I can get back into the car

So, tried two suggestions without success although second which involved connecting various terminals was a bit scary, working lying on my back with my head stuffed up the passeger tunnel in a dark multi storey.
Eventually lost bottle, considered retreat as better plan and got mate to run me home for spare keys.
Car back in garage at home, waiting for me to practice on it tomorrow

Sorry it didn't work out for you Roger. Must admit that wiring can be pretty intimidating at the best of times let alone in a dark car park. Worth having another look in daylight if you get the chance, because once you've worked out what to do, it is a quick and simple way into the boot.
