Help! Lost keys/fob

[vixen1700]

Haven't driven the Chimaera in ages, but needed to have it moved from where it's parked due to security & lighting work commencing tomorrow.

Spent three hours this morning combing the house for the keys as they weren't where I assumed they were.

We've since moved house since the last time it was driven which makes matters even worse. Cannot believe this!

Anybody know where and how I can get some keys plus the immobiliser fob so I can get into it to stick a new battery in and to move the damn thing?

Cheers!

Not a happy bunny this morning!

What alarm? I have an old Meta fob you can have if you get in and need to reprogramme. Not sure how this would work if you can't turn the ignition on though. Its the Tuscan one where you push it into the dash. If you get in maybe an auto electrician can hot wire it like in the movies.
Eta hadn't considered the steering lock...hope you find those keys!

I'm just trying to switch off at the moment so my mind might be able to come back in a couple of hours and think of a place they may be.

Nightmare!

Perhaps you can eliminate the chance that you left the keys in the previous house. Surely if the buyer found them, they would have contacted you - or the selling agent - to report the find. Unlike finding cash or a valuable object, there would be no incentive to keep the keys.

I still have my old flat, it's where the Chim is kept, so I know they're not there.

What a pain.

Just to update this, I'd resigned myself to getting shafted by one of the auto locksmiths, but my wife had a lightbulb moment last night and hey-presto they were in her hands.

Not sure how she managed it, but I'm pleased she did.

That must be how buried treasure stays buried.
Can’t remember where I put it.
That’s a relief or what.
All’s well that ends well.

That's the reason I have a spare couple of fobs. Wife lost the spare key anď fob while we were away so I decided a new alarm + keys were needed. Guess what she found 2 months later

I'm sure there is some kind of moral to this story .....

Well after the nightmares of getting into it, leaking fuel lines and actually getting it into the trailer lorry, it got to the garage. and after hating it, I started to fall back in love with it.
