Ultimately you could smash the tailight and buy a replacement for like 30-40 Quid, Ive heard thats one of the cheaper alternatives.

Quick Google and I found this, Guy had similar problem smashed the light and used a wire cutters to cut a hole and reached in.

Didn't realise there was as much open space behind the tail light
will still need a new light or a pair and prob 30 to 40 euro
got a quote for a valet key for 52 euro
prob makes sense to order one

True. But might find a light cheaper. Up to you I suppose 😀

I heard years ago that its possible to drill a hole somewhere behind the reg plate and you can get access to a lever that will pop open the boot but I've not seen it done
