Welcome to Just Commodores, a site specifically designed for all people who share the same passion as yourself.
How is that up there with preventative maintenance? My key never needed replacing I brought it second hand and was only given one, yes if I had a spare one cut then it wouldn't be a drama now but I have had the car for 5 years now without losing it, my key ring came undone and somehow it fell offI'm sorry for you because you have lost your key, but fair dinkum, this is right up there with preventative maintenance of your vehicle. If you had have replaced your key when it needed it, you wouldn't be in the position you are now with the associated additional costs.

If you replace things when they are broken or worn out, you won't have a problem. You said it yourself, if you had have purchased a second key you would not be in this predicament.
