is hasn't locked itself it will be a CD case or something jamming it at the back . . . .

Haha only thing I had in there was a sat nav, thought the cable had jammed it shut but I broke into it yesterday to take the sat nav out. The handle on the clove box just doesn't turn. Glovebox is empty

This happens to me on almost a weekly basis lol. give it a rag / pull the hinge pins out at the bottom.

Tried the ignition key but doesn't work for some reason

Guessing maybe the lock set has been changed at some point then, or you've had the glovebox replaced.
In which case, i refer you back to Darrens solution.

Matt they do lock themselves. Happens all the time in the runabout.
And on my flicked dash it did this, so stuck a screw driver in the lock twisted it til it broke the just took the locking barrel out and left the latch in place so you can still open and close it.

Only had the car 3 weeks so maybe it was changed before I got the car but glovebox was fine until last weekend... Will try Darren's solution tomorrow
