My car is a MK1 2001 Focus Zetec that I've been told uses a 2 key system. I have the spare. How much will it cost to buy a fob and have that and the key reprogrammed and the locks on the car reprogrammed.

Its booked in with Ford on Friday

Cheers

I'm pretty sure that if you have two working key fobs, you can programme a third yourself, saving you plenty of money. Check you hand book.

I had to get a spare cut and programmed by Ford (my second hand Mondeo only came with one key) and it was around £130 IIRC. Not cheap redface(

The spare isn't a fob unfortunately.

Cost me £87 at Ford for a spare for my Galaxy 4years ago. NOT a remote fob that would have been £143.
