Maplin jump starter
Maplin jumpstarter/charger/compressor/lamp/toaster is half
price, £ 20.
or
buy it on ebay for £ 25, 
Could be the source of a small battery?
400 A cranking and whole unit is ~ 5 kg plus you could use the jump leads to wire up your car.
caveat: small batteries were discussed recently and the ones in similar units are GEL that are not designed forthis purpose, i.e. supplying big As to
start and charging by alternator makes them unhappy

I've had a Clarke one for 7 years now and it still holds charge and starts my car or bike plus use as a camping battery. It will charge from the
auxiliary socket in the car but not as much as via the power brick.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
