 BMW 3-Series E90 - 10 1.8 Battery removed keys locked in boot - Dave_
I did the power tailgate / put the key down in the boot thing a week after inheriting my late father's 2012 C-class estate. Thirty miles from home, with a small child, on a Saturday an hour before bedtime. I called the AA who came out and drew a blank. The only solution was for the AA driver to take us home to pick up the spare key, then back to the car. It was complicated by the fact that the AA van's computer system won't let them do return journeys, so he had to fib about exactly what he was doing to achieve the desired result for us.

I've also just remembered the AA driver spent so long trying to get into the Merc that his van battery went flat and we had to push-start it. Also, that they have to declare all cash tips.

I haven't made the same mistake since.
