Thanks mrtexas. I followed the starting procedure you described at the seller where we pickup up the car and again on the trailer when we wanted to unload it. In both cases it started right away, so the problem really seemed to be that I flooded the engine when I started it the 2nd time on the trailer.
Battery was charged overnight (I'm in CET timezone), amps look good, so will give it a try after my morning coffee.
