And won't this negate the need to get to the battery for a jump start?

The jack won't fit. You need a low one thats less than about 12cm if you want to get it under without having to drive up onto blocks.

The jumper, I would think would be fine on little cars with engines less than 1.4L but anything bigger and you may be in danger of blowing something up or frying the cable and cigar lighter socket and its wiring.

Its best to get a big fat (and expensive) set of jump leads if you drive big fat expensive cars!




I'm sure Joust will be along soon to quash what I've said though. rolleyes

Went to Maplin, Didnt have a Noble with me but Measured the Jack, it's 110mm tall, it's heavyer than it looks in the picture, i'd be suprised if it didnt fit.
