Spare Key for 1988 S1

[mattjg01]

Hi guys

Brand new to the site. I've just purchased a 1988 S1 convertible, unfortunately it only has one key. Anyone know where I can get a spare?

Also got a tear in the leather at the base of my gearstick, is there anyone out there that sells replacement leather?

Looking forward to many happy miles in this awesome vehicle.

Thanks
Matt

Welcome to the S club - you've made a good choice !

Nothing flash about the keys by way of transponders or anything - why not just get another one cut from the one you have ?

Regards leather - why not take the original to an upholsterer and see if they can either repair it or make a new one from your template.

The steering column is Ford so a ford key should do the trick. I'm sure I got mine at one of those Key Master type places.

Yup. Any old key cutting place will knock one out for you.

Thanks for the help guys. I'll be straight along to my nearest key cutter to get a replacement before I lose my original!!
