What good people you are. Hopefully be able to rescue it later today and then assess what has occurred. Car is valet parked, they couldn't start it and killed the battery trying. Strangely the window on the drivers door is the wrong side of the A pillar trim so god knows how they managed that....

Very pissed off, teach me to use valet parking I suppose, though its been fine many times before.

That's what happens when you flatten the battery, then there isn't enough juice to lower the window that wee bit when you open the door to get out - then you swing the door shut again without thinking.

I see. Makes sense, in a TVR sort of way. Window not closed properly = water ingress too no doubt. Going back this pm to hopefully get it started.

Thanks to those who sent PMs, having owned a chim I thought it would be summat similar but no desire to look clueless in front of the car park staff!

Sorry, but I can't believe you just let anybody drive your Cerb after the horror stories you hear about valet parking.

I know, necessity I'm afraid. Alternative arrangements now in place. Mind you I've been using the guys at T5 who have masers, astons and other exotica there regularly so I figured they were competent.
