    Can anyone help? My 10 year old son has locked my car with the key inside.
    It's a Saphira with central locking and I don't have a spare key as it is a
    courtesy car. I need to get into it as there is something I need before I
    can get a garage man out tomorrow. Please.......anybody able to help?

    not got AA or RAC or a friend that has??
    don't forget many policies cover the person not the car.
    so if a mate has cover, ask him to call the aa/rac out saying it's his car
    while his normal one is in being fixed.
    he just came around to visit u ...didn't he.

    also, check that the 'car' or garage does not have it themselves, look at
    the agreement u signed.

    Well, I suggest that you be honest and tell the garage what has
    happened. Phone them up first thing - they must have a spare key.
    Get a taxi there and back and return the car. Otherwise it'll cost you a
    window - pick the cheapest but be ready with about £80 if you do.

    I know it's too late now but if the car is under 3 years old it has AA
    cover. Years 2 & 3 exclude homestart & relay but that won't matter in this
    case.
