I've locked all my car keys and house keys in my car - a jag xj40.
I opened the car with the key whilst the battery was disconnected and then reconnected the battery which immediatley locked the doors with the keys inside!
I have the boot open still but there is a solid bulkhead between the boot and rear seats.
Have tried sliding various hooks and items into the doors to hook the locks open etc but it is well shrouded and I cant get to anything.
Does anyone have any ideas at all?

Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!

Smash the smallest window. Cover it with stickytape first if you can.

No spare keys anywhere?

smash your way in through the windscreen, get the insurance to do replace it for 50 quid, cheaper than a locksmith!

Maybe in days of old, I would doubt it thesedays. They'll have a hammer though!

A coat hanger in the right place should work on that (according to my stepdad who used to work for jaguar). Shame you cant get in your house to get one.

I suggest a brick personally.

Do you have a jack?

If so, remove the drivers side rear wheel.

If it has those nobs that pop up when the doors are unlocked, then you can get in with a loop of the think plastic twine you sometimes see wrapping parcels from amazon...

Works on older cars, don't know if yours is suitable or not.


If not that then half a tennis ball on the door locks?

time to learn lockpicking maybe?
on a car that age, i'd say it'd be a 6 pin wafer tumbler, which is fairly low tech, could be a handy hobby
