Help! No door locks!



  clio
Hi,
My Clio's battery is so flat that I cannot get in and there doesn't appear to be any mechanical door locks. Now what do I do?
Many thanks.

Thank you for all your many and varied suggestions but i am really in the s**t here :(

No door or boot locks anywhere. One of the previous owners must have removed all these for security reasons. Tomorrow (Saturday) my local garage owner mate is coming to jack up the front, get a jump lead onto the starter motor and see if we can get some power going and blip the car open that way.

Otherwise it's the smashwindow entry route

I'll let you know how I get on :S

Bend the top of the door (GENTLY!!!!!) and get something in to pop the handle from inside.

Do this! I managed to lock myself out of mine once by pressing lock instead of rear demist LOL! AA came and uses like a small door wedge/stop at the top of the door opening it slightly then used like a straightened coat hanger to go across to the passenger door handle, made it look sooooo simple!

Good Lord! A sensible suggestion! I will certainly try this route if the jump lead trick fails!
