#1: Different Keys? Author: Marni..206, Location: S. DevonPosted: Tue Nov 30, 2010 4:57 pm ---- As some of you know I bought a new car today. Went and saw her today, test drove her and everything.
Then I saw the keys, they were different.
One was similar to my current keys but the electric one was really funny like stupidly zig zaggy. I did ask and he said oh never noticed it before, didnt check them both but the electric one does open the car, and start her up.
Would it just mean she has had new locks or something?
#2: Re: Different Keys? Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Tue Nov 30, 2010 4:59 pm ---- The key blades are different or the actual key fob thing?
#3: Re: Different Keys? Author: Marni..206, Location: S. DevonPosted: Tue Nov 30, 2010 5:00 pm ---- Ermm ill draw the electric one as I left that at the garage with the car as I couldnt drive 2 cars back.

#5: Re: Different Keys? Author: Marni..206, Location: S. DevonPosted: Tue Nov 30, 2010 5:08 pm ---- Where as my old ones are are identical, heres the new ones.
#6: Re: Different Keys? Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Tue Nov 30, 2010 5:10 pm ---- The ones without the buttons are the emergency ones if you lose the main key. They won't activate the alarm, they will just start and unlock the car
#7: Re: Different Keys? Author: Marni..206, Location: S. DevonPosted: Tue Nov 30, 2010 5:12 pm ---- Will I still be able to open the door with that key though?
Or will I have to get others cut?
As the electric key is just as I have drawn it, just prickly.

Well thats handy to know lol. As long as it works aswell at the other one its okay.
Just how exactly do I tell someone I bought a new car... Apart from saying oh hey I got a new car. I kinda have to do it so he doesnt go mad.
Quote - 'Cars are not cheap, they are very expensive to run, they are not toys to be messed around with. Once you have one it will not be easy to sell, even harder to find a decent one to buy. Just dont bother with a bigger engine till you need one!!'
And he did buy me my LOOK, so dont want to upset him by saying I got a better one, seeing as I have only had it since July.
#11: Re: Different Keys? Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Tue Nov 30, 2010 5:22 pm ---- Just go "look grandad, i've bought a new car can't be doing with that slow thing you bought me, needed something better in my life. Now be a good boy, and be quiet"
Then see what he says
#12: Re: Different Keys? Author: Mike, Posted: Tue Nov 30, 2010 5:23 pm ---- Not sure if this picture is of any help, the one on the right is my original key which I got re-cut (the left key) but they both start/open the car fine, even though the old one is extremely worn down

Its not slow really, quite nippy on the 149miles journey to southampton then took it slower back as I was aching, took 3 hours to get there, then 4 hours back, just wanted the quiksilver theme as I am quite surfery anyway.

Thats just what they are like, except the original one is the more zig zaggy one. I was just concerned as I bought a quiksilver before and it came with 5 keys, so didnt want to be ripped off again. I didnt go through with the sale before. And still really wanted a quiksilver so I found one.
Found her extremely hard to drive compared to mine. Sounded quite chuggy at first bit like a diesel but its def a petrol. Atleast I think it is.
EDIT: Is that what them little keys are? Just re cut ones? I have one of them and thought it was maybe a key that had broke and they just kept it.
