   I'm guessing you don't mean the central locking fob otherwise I don't see why you can't just use the key anyway? is it an aftermarket alarm?

   If it's an aftermarket alarm be warned it may have a back-up power source.If standard saxo alarm then just unplug it.

   Sounds like a predator alarm to me mate... Has it got a standard ecu? Any other mods to the car that could be a give away to any work that's been done?

   It's decat front lowered manifold changed its a 3plug ecu that's all Ino from looking, I've noticed I've got sensors either side of my door pillars but I seen a post saying you can turn them off on the dash a button with a speaker sign with a cross through it, I don't have this button just checked my fob is black square apart from the top right which has a keyring hole it has two buttons on big button which unlocks and locks car with a beep beep after locking and one beep to unlock, I've googled for ages to find the same fob purely to replace the casing as mine is cracked

   Hmmmm, weird, those black squares on the door pillars are standard alarm sensors for vtr up until 2002, what type of immobiliser have you got?
