Help! I've locked meself out!!

Right guys, not having a good day. Need some urgent help!

Firstly, its a 95 P38 4.0 gems

Left the lights on in the rangie and the battery has gone completely flat. stupid thing to do but I'll kick myself later about that!

Anyhow, "Bugger" say I, so pull the Alfa alongside and pop the bonnets connect the jump leads and click... the door locks drop with the keys in the ignition.

"Double bugger!"

Now, you'll know where this is going but I only have one key so I'm right royally screwed.

Now I'm not expecting folk to post on a wide open forum but could someone PM any info or clues how to get in?

Many thanks for any help.

There is a member on here who can PM you a clean method, if you do a search you may find out who it is.

Otherwise its through the rear quarter glass on the back door....

p.m. Rewmer

Brixton Keys always work.....

I know I shouldn't laugh but ...

ROFL.

More importantly, did you get in without damaging the car?

Going to attack her tonight when I get back from work. Thought daylight would help me see how badly I damage the paint! Plus throwing bricks through my windows late at night does tend to get the neighbors reaching for phones!

Trust me, felt like a berk the moment the locks dropped. Think the neighbors got a laugh at me jumping up and down screaming me head off though!

I'd bet that a spare key doesn't seem quite so expensive now.

Easy mistake to make. I've come close a few times!

I've also had the car lock itself with the key inside, fortunately I have 2 FOB's plus the extra blade supplied when the car was new. Now, when ever I'm going to work on the car, the first thing I do is open the drivers window.

I always leave the boot open. Main reason being that when I was tinkering with the central locking (I should have put one of the many times ...) all the locks went down and the windows went up!

Think you might have pipped Datatek on that one as a belt-'n-braces. Good one!

G~

We are all guilty of that once in our lives. I did it when I was changing the lock on mine. Had to have the window up to access the lock and then left the keys on the seat so I could reach them for testing the new lock. I turned round to get the door card and as I came back the door just clicked shut. It was all in slow motion and I didn't need to look to know they were all shut. Luckily the upper tail gate had a habit of not locking every time and to my shock luck rolled in my direction and it was still open.

Now your just showing off "two fobs"

I normally open the window too but having a flat battery kinda put a spanner in that one... defo think a trip to the stealers for a key may be in order at some point.

Doh, you all just need a driver's lock with a dead motor... the car can NEVER lock itself on me


Yes.. there is a dark side to that, i get to use my key blade a lot...
