Have you tried contacting the seller to see if he has the other key.

Ideally I'm hoping there is a way to have a new door and boot lock made to suit the original code for the car.

I did try that, but no joy unfortunately.

Time to call a locksmith ?

Took my boss all of 40 seconds to brake into a car whose kid had locked him self inside it with the key in the car and was too young to understand how to unlock it again .

I would have thought the door and boot would more likely to be original that's why I suggested the steering lock, but obviously if the ignition lock is original , then its the others as you suggest

Just in case you missed this. Use your breakdown provider to break into it. Some offer lost key cover and you may find the guy on the ground can break in with a piece of plastic wrap like a policeman done for my dad once. (Newspaper delivery wrap from a newsagent)

Sorry Colin, I did see your suggestion. I don't have cover at the moment. Figured I've got enough cars to cover myself.

I was wrong . . . . for a change.

Will have a go with wire through the door to pull the pin and open the interior door pull.
