Ford Focus key

I have just bought a Focus second hand that is from the year 1999 but there is only one key. As we both share the car it is essential that we have one each as a spare. I went to a local key cutter and they said it could cost £75 but with Ford around £150 !!! I was shocked by this and was wondering if there is anywhere cheaper to get a spare.

Thanks.

    I'm about to buy a Ford Fiesta key from ebay - about £30 + cutting cost at your local key cutting place :)
  • I think the problem you have, is that you cannot program the key yourself, because you only have one key at present. You could consider buying an eBay key, and getting the keysmith to program it for you, but that may not give much of a saving.
