If you rule out Storms suggestion you are only really left with trying a coat hanger or similar bit of wire. The top of the door will prise out quite a bit so it is doable. On the bright side at least it isn't superlocked..

Or call AA, RAC, Greenflag etc. They can either do as aniesigh says or they'll airbag the door and pull the key out of the ignition or will wind down the leccy windows. They may even just hit the central locking button.

I think the above post should be removed as it gives details on a potential way to break into a vehicle....

Don't think ratty is around any more. Easier to report the post which I'll do.

It's hard enough to get into these vehicles and start them even if you own them and have the keys...
