2000 Citroen Saxo rear doors stuck shut, car off road (sorned) over a year
Year: 2000
Variant: Forte
Car has been off road and unused for over a year (Sorned)
Both rear doors are stuck shut, but I can reach the controls from the front.
I have been able to reach and lubricate both front door catches, but I have done that by
removing the panels. Obviously I can't access the rear panels with the door closed.
Jiggling the door handles and lock buttons has not freed anything yet, but is there any cunning way I could I could try apart from more jiggling?

If rear doors cant be opened from either inside or out , you will have no option but to strip down door panels to get into lock assembly and manually operate the locks to open . May not be possible to avoid damage to door trims ,
