Locked key in the boot !

Featured Replies

Hi, have locked my key in the boot ! Will the dealer who supplied the cat be able to order a new key? Thanks.

Do you not have a spare key?

You’re going to need your v5 to prove it’s your car and they key will also need to be coded to the car. It’s not going to be cheap.

Wouldn’t it be possible to break a window, (or force it down) open the door from the inside, drop the seat back, and reach into the boot, always assuming your model has folding rear seats…

 

Might be cheaper, and quicker than a new key..

thanks guys.. esp.the suggestion of breaking a window !!  however a local car locksmiths have sorted it by just picking the lock with a tool,£50.

Makes you realise even deadlocked how insecure your car is ! 

I have now in the meantime ordered a spare key.

locksmith picked the lock in 2 mins..no questions asked. 

Worries me that the locksmith didn't ask any questions to be honest.

They are suppossed to confirm identiy of the person before providing entry to anything locked.
