Shouldn't have been a problem with wrong key! Try disconnectiong the battery for a couple of minutes. Before reconnecting put key in ignition and turn to on position. Turn off after battery is connected then should start.
Can advise how to remove immobiliser circuit if required. You would need to buy a couple of bits first.
