Yes the dealer can get a replacement cut/programed using your cars reg no.

Also look in the Yellow pages for a QUALITY Locksmith they can also provide new keys/coding by coming to you.You'll need your LOG BOOK and probably your D/L to hand,unfortunatley both options won't be cheap.

Doesn’t the key have to be programmed to the car I would have thought it’s a dealer job…………. Ouch.

was it expensive because i only have one car key and its my biggest worry that i will loose it but to get another so i have a spare was £40 and at the moment i think I would rather take the risk of just having one
