Got nowhere with the saw unfortunately, the door holds it at the wrong angle so I can't get it to go where I need it. I used my best Spear and Jackson too, Eric Olthwaite would have been proud!

Cheers,

Nubira, can't open door.

I can get to the latch mechanism with a steel ruler by sliding it between the glass and the window but the latch doesn't seem to be working even though I can feel the lever going up and down. I can do the same on the passenger door ...
