I'm in Lancashire if anyone on here offers that service or can recommend anyone.

Not sure you read the whole post.
Can't really see this fella travelling to Lancashire to do a key.

That actually doesn't sound too bad for BMW.
What's a valet key tho? I'm presuming it's just the blade.

They offer a postal service. Many people on this forum have used them, including me. New keys and key refurbs.

As Zed says, postal service. They did mine a few years back too. I'm in Cornwall. Good service. :thumbsup:

There's a guy in Newton-le-Willows, Cheshire who cut and coded a flip-style key for mine for £80. Search for zedshed.

Not too sure if there is an age limit on cars but if you have AA recovery add key cover to it. I’ve just added it to my policy for £36. It covers 2 cars on the policy too with no access. It covers lost keys, broken keys , faulty keys etc
Currently Zedless for now……..
BMW E89 3.5i M Sport manual, gone to new home but starting to regret it…….
Audi S5 Cab, Great car but not a Z4
BMW E89 3.5i DCT, Havana Brown, should never have sold it…..
BMW E85 3.0 Auto, sadly missed (twice)
