I bought one from an eBay selling shipped from the states. Great key. Can't remember what I paid, but think it might have been about £18. Got it cut at the local timpsons. Better to go with Diable's recommendation. I didn't realise they were that cheap here. :D

It's not like you to get scammed :P
The dealer said £12 . I did not check the invoice till a week or so later , so I could not back it :(

I needed a genuine one as I had set a customers keys alight :eek: Luckily, his Clifford alarm fob survived unscathed.
