Is there noise from the driver's door lock area specifically when you operate the remote? Does the little pip go up and down? I'd hazard a guess that the lock is disconnected either mechanically or electrically, or it's just plain bu&&ered.
If you take the door card off (not difficult) then you'll be able to see if the lock mechanism and it's electrical connections.
At worst it'll mean sourcing a replacement lock mechanism. Not too expensive and (if it's much the same as a V70 or S70) not too difficult to fit.
You'll be able to retain the existing key.
Cheers
