I have the same car and if you're trying to turn it over more than once without it starting up right away then you have some possible problems. Most likely are :

1: battery could be dying

2: starter could be going out

Why cant you turn on your car the key goes into the the ignition but it seems locked because you cant turn the ignition to get the car started?

It may be that when you shut down your car earlier you had your steering wheel turned just so. Try inserting your key in the ignition and turn your steering wheel just slightly and see if that will unlock the switch. I had that happen to me and that is all I needed to do. Hope this helped.

Reset clio immobilizer?

Ensure the battery is charged. Unlock car on the key fob. Turn key in ignition to position 3 (ignition fully on but not at start) for 30s to 1 min. Return to fully off for 30s. Back to position 3 for 30s, to off for 30s. Then turn key straight to start position, engine should now catch on the started. This should reset the imobiliser. Needed after the car is jumped from another car if the battery has run flat because its french and so is afraid of work. Hope it works for you Matt
