.....so ****ed off at myself for not thinking of it sooner.

I won't say how I did it here, for security reasons, but I can confirm that the "bent coathanger" technique will not work.....Volvo's design of the doors, frames & door handles is too clever & secure ( Well done Volvo !!)

Thankyou Lizard for that info....
...my next job is to get the fobs recoded, as the manual door unlocking mechanism is fubar.
Do you know if a Volvo independent can do fob recoding, or is it main dealers only ??

Give GRN a call , not sure if they can but worth the £ of a call Tel: 0121 565 1613
