Summer is here at last, and I'm trying to get my boxster out of my garage. Trouble is that the battery is completely dead. Car is a '97 Boxster. When I open the door lock with the key, there is not enough power for the window to drop the required centimetre or so for the door to open. I therefore cannot get to the 12V cigarette lighter to put power into the battery or to the bonnet release, as I cannot get into the car. Help urgently required! Any ideas?
