Havent driven my car for 6 months and went up to it the other day to get something out of it and it wouldnt unlock using the key. Used the spare key and that wouldnt open it either. I used the keylock in the drivers side door and that wouldnt unlock it either. I am assuming it is a dead battery or something but i cant get into the car to open the bonnet and get to the battery. Is there a manual way to get into the car or am i stuck?

not sure but i think you have to force the door lock an extra half turn, i havnt done it but apparently its that hard a turn youll think youd snap the key off,

failing that, see if you can jack the car up, support it safely and hook a battery up to the positive on the starter motor, and earth lead to anywhere that you see solid and metal but not insulated,
