Booster cables

Booster cables

The cheapest way to get going when your battery has succumbed to the big freeze is with booster cables. Link these from your car to another, and you can be on your way in minutes. Look for a decent case to survive life in the boot, strong, insulated clips and the longest cables you can afford. Prices start at less than £5, but nearer £20 should get you a decent set.
