I have a small workshop in Navestock Essex, I have my 400SE there and your welcome to come and try my key.
If not I have a lot of tools so should be able to remove, plus I have some cap head bolts that can go in there until you can get a key.
I have a lathe and mill so can look into making you a key also.
Regards
Leigh

There are 3-prong Corsa ones on the flea which look like they could be easily modded to work and only £1.99 inc p+p.

Many thanks for the offer Leigh. I've actually found a 2nd hand key that might (and it's only might) fit. It should be with me Thursday.
If that doesn't work I'll PM you. Thanks again.

Sorted..............well sort of.

Not all keys fit all wheels, I understand that there's at least 2 types of bolt/key combination (L & M I think).

I managed to get hold of an OZ L1 key from eBay Germany - on the Maserati page (the Bi-Turbo has OZ wheels apparently)

It only just worked, I had to put it into the bolt at a slight angle.

When I got the bolts out, I realised why they weren't a perfect fit............they had the letter M on the side face.

I don't think I'll re-use them, they're M6 and 30mm long so I'll look out for some allen bolts of that size.

Thanks to everyone for their advice and particularly Tony and Leigh for the offer of a 5 minute lend of theirs
