This weekend, I'm organising a college autosolo. It's a bit of fun, but all organised by the MSA Blue Book, which is part of the educative content.
We have college permission to use two runners from their collection of decrepit cars, intended to be dismantled by the students for their education.
But the keys to the 1994 Mk2 Micra are lost and they cannot be found, after two weeks of searching.

We had to break into the car as the doors were locked (long wire), but can't start it
Hotwiring won't solve the steering lock.
Can anyone advise on how to break the steering lock?

PM me if you feel it should not be public knowledge. I'll be glad to offer bona fides!

Thanks
John (Student and event organiser, CofC, etc)

Thank you! Must admit, I was expecting something a little more 'scientific' than a scaffold bar and twist it 'til it breaks.
Anyhow, lifted the bonnet last night (geting t'other car ready) and someone (I know wh0) has stolen the radiator too!

Never mind, we'll manage with one car. It'll be slower between runs, but anyway.
