DRIVERS SIDE LOCK WON"T MOVE LEFT OR RIGHT>>>> think it is jammed

Bought my chimaera yesterday. I have managed to do all the locking bits in the wrong order and I am completely locked out.

Followed the Instruction manual which doesn't help... and I am wondering if the lock on the drivers side is malfunctioning.

irritatingly the tvr is at the end of the driveway and I can only get one of my other cars out. At least it is up the driveway.

Obviously, it would be a bad idea to post anything on here. I don't expect anyone to do that.

I'm just sharing my pain for now.. hopefully my brain will reconnect itself and it is something obvious I am doing wrong. Its freezing outside !ARGH!

is it possibly frozen in place, or perhaps it's pushed down slightly,
either way, can't you crawl in from the passenger side if you need it moved now?

mark cheers.

I managed to get in yesterday. I won't say here how I did it - but the lock is ok, I had managed to do the security in the wrong order and very much confused the locking mechanism! It was sat at the end of the driveway blocking all but one car in (including an impreza) so I was in a big hurry to move it!
