Get a taxi. Seriously, if you know its risky, don't do it.

My motto - Gamble only with what you can afford to lose.

Disconnect fuel pump relay/fuse.

Failing that get a bloody great dog for the night and leave it inside!

There's your answer. It's a pain, but don't take the risk.

Yeah if you can just get the train id do that and leave the car at home then you know it's going to be ok when you come back to it.
