You'll like this one! I lost my door/ ignition key. It simply droped of the key ring leaving me with boot, petrol and steering lock keys.

Better still i can't find my spare set.

do i really need new ignition chamber and door locks? :roll:

Cheers, scott.

Must be catching.

How did you resolve this, I don't really want to change the barrels.

Help most welcome.

go to a lock smith, they should be able to cut you a key very simillar., it does not have to be exact; I have started my mog with the garage key a few times :lol:

My granddad tells the tale of when he picked up his shiny new Cortina and drove away using the key from his old one... :lol:

I can remember going out for a family outing in my Dad's Austin 1100. There were some students a few cars away in the car park who had locked their keys in the boot of their Mk 1 Escort, and they were going from car to car to see if anyone's keys would open it. Couldn't believe it when our Crook Lock key did the trick!

If you have one of those lovely motor accessory shops which
still give some sort of personal service and they cut car keys
then you should find that they have a huge bunch of our sort
of keys which they will let you try on your car. Identify yours
and they will cut the new ones while you wait!
