I'm stuck in a car park with my key stuck in the barrel and I can't turn it enough to get the key out I've got some tools with me but don't want to break the barrel.

If you can turn the key and start the car. You should be able to completely remove the barrel and unplug it from the car loom. Other than that its a case of wiggle it until you can get it out Sad

Is it stuck in the off position ?

Have you turned the steering wheel at all? If the steering lock engages you have to turn the wheel a bit for the key to turn all the way. It should still come out easily mind.

Definitely wasn't the steering lock mate. Got it sorted now thanks to spike Wink.

Sorted it today had to drill out the bottom of the barrel as I couldn't release the tabs with the key as it wouldn't turn enough but once it was out was straight forward.
