I would have thought it has some kind of transponder and antenna system, but am guessing at this. 

Has the key got a small red tab on it? 

 

No-just a solid black plastic fob which doesn't seem to have anything in it, or come apart. No central locking either it's the base model.

I would have thought there will be a transponder built in. They dropped the red bit years ago.

The remote locking part is immaterial it the car had a PATS system.

All Fords ran the PATS (passive anti theft system) immobiliser from the late 90s onwards

Well i found a blank-but it does indeed state it needs a transponder fitting so i guess i'll have to take it to a garage to be done?

Google mobile car key cutting.

There will probably be someone local that can come and cut and programme a key on your drive. Won't be a Ford part but it will work.

I used to use a guy in Croydon when I was sales manager at Ford, a third of the price compared to the Ford service dept.... they hated that 🤣🤣

Cheers will look into that.

Yep apparently there's a Timpsons outside our local big Tescos so i'll nip in & see what they can do.

I think that is not much more than I used to pay a good 10 years ago for a new one cut and programmed,
