If you loose the existing one then the bill really goes up. Locksmith cost us £180 for a visit and two new keys when son lost his only vauxhaul key.
He found the original key a fortnight later ![]() Ford chip keys are £45 from the local locksmith so you are in the ball park with £50. Pete

£50 sounds like the going rate, £35 for the key and £15 coding... not bad to me.

or if you have key cover on your insurance - say you lost your key and it's covered

£55 sound good TBH
Honda HISS keys are around £60 just for the blank, and you need to either go to Honda or a specialist independent to encode it
