With all due respect, your question's a bit like "I've just nicked a vehicle, how do i drive it away.

Contact your local Citroen dealer with chassis number, MOT ticket, log book etc (ie proof of ownership) and I'm sure they'll be more than pleased to help.

Without a key perhaps the only way is to get a set of 'computer boxes', from a scrapped car.

All the individual ECU's - engine management, air bags, body management etc - are all coded together so just changing one, that controls the engine inhibitor, is unlikely to work. Might be ok if you can get someone to retrieve the inhibitor key code (or you have the original documentation that has this information), so you can have a new key made to match existing units.

You may need more specialist, in depth knowledge for this one. I would try a Citroen forum. One of their experts may be able to help.

You've got bob hope without Citroen diagnostic gear & the key code card out of the log book.
