Mate my suggestion is how the RACV will unlock your car.
Crunchy
If all else fails trade it in on a new one!
Just take a photo of yours in to the showroom and get them to come pick it up from your place.
This option is on the table if the locksmith cannot solve the problem!!!
In the meantime keep smiling..........

If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular???
reasonably, that was my first thought but looking under the car is just a mass of covers and can't see anything, tried googling where the starter motor might be from under the car and couldn't find any diagram, also is that positive battery lead hanging in mid air or laying on the chassis? Can't remeber....
Nope, no battery in the car to operate the locks
Got one more thing to try (lube the lock some more as SURELY it is a mechanical lock for this very situation) if that don't work then RACQ membership here we come.
im not too bummed out just yet, just taking it in my stride.
Oh What a Feeling, NOT !

Some vehicles you can unlatch the bonnet through the grille if you're lucky this might work
Tried that to no avail, definitely no mechanical lock, that's f'd up. Got the car jacked up and removing all manner of covers now
got a tow bar plug and a 12v battery????? try feeding 12v onto the 12v line ....earth to earth ....might be enough to power the lock ?
Can you reach the + terminal on the battery with a jumper lead from underneath.
Have managed to hook one of the battery terminals with a coat hanger, now is it the positive or negative, bloody hell, will see if multimeter can help
Bugger, it was the earth, took me 20mins to fish that out, back to try and catch the positive...
For goodness sake do not fry your electrics including the computer!!!!
Spend some $s to save a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mate I'm gunna win this *&^% battle I tell ya, dont get care if the car gets written off'at this point as long as I get into the damn thing. Have manged to hook the positive lead but having a hell of a job getting my hands up to connect the jumper leads, needed a little break and quiet time, think the neighbours have heard some new words.
And yes I was using the forklift as a jack
So your in?
