One of the locals was kind enough to lend me a 9inch angle grinder so I cut a c shape in the roof peeled it back and jumped in got the keys and mobile again with a bit of extra venterlation :D

Can't get used to locking it up that's my problem
The vans are never locked that was untill satuaday when some person stole the misses bag out of the front of the van while we were on the back in grimsby it only had about 300quid on it all her bank cards all the house keys ect
So since then I have started to lock it while we are in the back didn't want the keys to get wet OS I put them under the table got out shut the side door and it b*stard locked still if I do it again at least I can get back in easy now :lol:

:? My older vans wouldnt lock if a door was open but this one locks what's shut and as soon as you shut the open door (with the keys left inside) it locks it no problem now though I have a large hole in the roof :(

I would have called a locksmith rather than do that to the roof.
