Youre fucked,

Gonna have to smash the rear 3/4 window, then open the bonnet undo the battery, remove all locks and the key barrel, and replace with new ones, and unlock the ECU, replace fobs. gonna cost about £500+

Balderdash! about smashing the rear window. If you had any finesse at all you would know that it is possible to open the rear 3/4 by rapping it with your hand- thereupon you can feed your arm in and open the door. I have done this myself more than once on several different cars- including me Saxo.
