That's not a bad shout.
I said to buy one of those all bag pumps, hire a compressor and put it under front wheel, lifting one side at a time. Get it on bricks on levels then get to the starter.

Not sure, although he's changing the engine for an amg engine this year as far as im aware.
It's a twin slider T5. He has changed a lot. T6 dash and electrics, t6.1 front/rear. It's had a lot of money spent
Yeah that's what I originally thought. Get it under each wheel.
Ill send him them, thank you, you're a star
@TheGrapeEscape dig a small hole in his drive so you can get a jack in then chock it up as you go job done
Don't think so. Will tell him now
I never thought about that.
I've just had a kit delivered off amazon. Pump bags for the door and a long extension bar with a hook on the end. My hope is that I can pull the bonnet pull, get battery charged and his troubles are over
Good luck with that....
Fyi the doors will be auto deadlocked, so the internal pull handle won't work.
But the key should 100% work in the door even when it's deadlocked, assuming is standard and not been messed with.
Also when you get it sorted it recommend a Anderson, Ctek. Victron quick connect wired to the battery and cable tied down under the rad area...... So you can connect a charger in future.

Get a jump pack . . . .
He's bought this (wether it's any good or not?)
I'm leaving mine at 9am for the 2 hour drive to him, hopefully I have some good news later

Yeah so far he's tried
Key in all doors
Gaffer tape on window in a square to pull down
Putting power to fog light and horn
Nothing has worked.
I did say try get under the back to power the compressor up. Atleast if it lifts, can get a jack under.
The doors have most likely been replaced and lock barrels not been changed that’s why the key will not work.
A lock smith may be able to pick the lock.
As someone suggested earlier, dig down under a wheel or under a sill and get a low profile jack then get access to the starter and attach jump leads.
