From memory it was something to do with the door latching mechanism on its way out so sometimes when you lock the car it won t lock because the door latch appears to be open. While i liked the idea of a british marque the decision was my mistake as i didn t do enough research. Last time it did it i gently hit the door skin in the area of the lock mechanism from the outside of the vehicle with the flat of my hand and it opened and has continued to work normally so far. Start from the bottom.

I took it yo my mechanic who new what it was without looking at it.
