I've lost the key to my transit. It's the old hexagon/round style with the transponder but no buttons, the central locking is on a separate fob.
I've been quoted £110 to replace the key by a locksmith. Is that a good price?

Alternatively, is there some way to bypass the immobiliser and get it started?

Thanks!

Seems like a reasonable price if all the keys are gone?

The (physical) key code will have to be figured by either skill or stripping a lock cylinder, a new key supplied & cut, then diagnostics plugged into to code the new transponder value to the vehicle - can be a bit of a piss about.

Bypass - no.
