In the jack box?
In the 'secret compartment' under the passengers seat [non-sport only]?
Did they even give you one?

the seats are sport seats so no secret compartment as i have a 206 aswell and that is where my locking wheel nut is. My brother may not have one but just looking around the car to see if there is one.
and no it wasnt in the jack box, he probably doesnt have one...

good idea to mention this? anyone who would want to steal your alloys has a slightly better chance now

Meh you don't need the key to nick some alloys. 16/18mm socket, extension bar and a hammer Or just a stud remover

I knew there was a way round it, just stating where you keep things for security just goes against the point really...
