There should be a blade in your key fob,, prise the small cover off the door handle (passenger door I think) a there is a mechanical lock behind it which will open the door. If you have a tow socket fitted I think you can power the car from there also,, Google the pin connections and put a battery charger on the pos and neg. That may be enough to power the central locking to get you in 2010 RRS, TDV8

It’s a mechanical lock. Very stiff to operate due to lack of use. Fear of breaking

Or pins 3 (earth) and 9 (+ve) if you have a 13-pin tow socket.

The passenger door manual lock will get you in. Take care - it can be very stiff and thus feel like you're about to snap the key. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
