Try spraying a bit of WD40 in the keylock too.
Might be left field but it may have central locking but it had packed up before you bought it?

I thought that aswell, but the actuall latches inside the door are different, there isnt any of the wires on it, and its a lot slimmer than the ones with central locking.

What else would i need to look for if it did have central locking, some kind of power box i presume?
