Use the key in drivers door, it will take some force (can be scary at times) but will work..

If prefacelift, you can get in boot.  You may be be able to either get in by breaking ski hatch, or charging via boot light enough to open.

You will think it's going to bend or snap -- but the lock should spring first !!!

Remember the lock button won't spring up when you open with the key.
If you feel it click, try to open the door it will eventually work.

If that does not work, there is another way ;) ;) ;)
I have passed it onto a couple of members and it has worked.
