there is some play in the steering wheel while its locked, turn it whatever amount you can then turn the key at the same time as you turn the steering wheel. should work.

its a steering lock. most cars have them. if you move the wheel with the key out you have to move the wheel while trying to turn the key.
for instance turn the wheel left and try to turn the key, if that doesnt work turn the wheel right and try to turn the key
