My r53 won’t start.

I’ve been having a couple of problems with my Mini, but I can’t even get me car to start even after a jump. At first I thought I needed an oil change and anti freeze add but nope my car just won’t turn on.

Oil and coolant won't lead to a no start situation .

Check the battery. Batteries tend to die in cold weather, a bad battery will not work even when jumped. If the battery is still good, start checking for spark, fuel then compression .

Thank you

It’s definitely dead, went to check to see it sitting in water.
