Battery is in the boot r/h side below the floor mat.. the plus symbol in the engine bay is the live feed from the battery..there should be a large nut on the suspension top which is the negative if u cant find it use a good earth point on the engine manifold or any non painted part

Yes the red + is positive & anywhere on the engine that is a good hold will do to jump. Battery is under the rear seat. To remove seat base, find the levers at each corner of the base cushion (roughly pointing towards the pillar between the front & rear doors), pull levers up & pull seat up.
