Default Broken driftbitch- deadlocked BMW, help PLEASE!

Guys, one of my 'mates' decided it would be funny to nick the key for the drift bitch, as I always leave it in the ignition.

To add insult to injury, they then deadlocked the car. I'm sure it was meant to be a laugh, but when they saw me going to the extremes of smashing windows to get in it they obviously decided that they weren't going to own up.

Now I've never locked the car before- it only goes between the factory and either Oulton or Ty Croes, so I never even take the key out of the ignition. I have definately never double-locked it.

Anyway, I finally got in to it (this happened at Oulton Park) by taking a door handle off and messing with the rods through the hole, but i can'r release the bloody double locks on the other doors.

Does anyone know how to do it? BMW want loads of paperwork, and, as the car is only worth about £50 I just can't be arsed.

Thanks,
Simon.

Tell your mates to kindly drop the key through your letterbox while you're at work, ie anon. They don't get blamed, you get the key back.

Do the key through the letterbox thing, suggested above. Then use your drift bitch to run down your mates, one at a time, ala Christine.

You need new mates.
