Can I use my new BMW to jump start my old Mazda battery?

I have a old Mazda MX5 (99 model) and a BMW 3 series (2008 model).





The battery on the Mazda is flat out and I don't have a Break down cover on it. Can I use my new bmw to jump-start the mazda? Or are the new bmw batteries not compatible with the jump cables, etc?





Thanks in advance|||sure you can jump it, 12 volts to 12 volts.|||yes you can they all use a 12 volt battery make sure you hook up cables with both cars off than start car with good battery wait 5 minuets shut off car than start the other car this will protect your new cars computer and alternator from voltage spikes
