Right. This one's a bit of doozy... The boot on my 525e is stuck shut. I'm 90% certain that something has gotten a bit intimate with either the hinges or more likely the catch mechanism.
Now the beauty of the E28 is that it has a nice ski pass for me to crawl through... Except it doesn't
I've tried sitting on it and massaging the open button, high-fiving the badge area, poking long things through the strut access holes, but to no avail.
I've got the following, fairly primitive ideas...
Smash a light
Drill out the lock
Drill a hole behind the number plate
Cut a hole in the top of the boot
Cut a hole behind the rear seat
Never open the boot again
Or actually use my AA membership for something and see what creative ideas they come up with...
Any ideas? If not feel free to grab some popcorn
