The black bit of the key has the immobiliser chip in so no, have to send it to Citroen

thanx mate, what shop was that? just any key cutting shop or you have to go to some one who speciallises in car keys? ;)

[pink-lady]

some shops ask for v5 document before cutting them, as anyone from car dealerships could get them cut and sell on the keys

I got quoted £35 since my key had chip in it from a normal key cutting shop.

Asked at Citroen in November the price of getting a key cut, due to the immobiliser it would cost £115 with the code for the immobiliser handed to them when I send the key... if they have to find the code themselves... £150. :err:

All the key cutters by me state that they cannot cut the key due to the immobiliser chip, but would charge just £30 for the key.
