not current but when I was the proud owner of one of these beasts I thought the key was a work of art as much as a key.

No unnecessary gubbins on it, no buttons, just a single, nicely designed piece of engineering. Had mine on a simple Nissan keyring. Needs no more than that.

OK that's pretty nice. I want one for my front door.

Really? Cool, it looks way more modern than that. It's a nice sleek design.

I reckon there could well be a market for that: house keys made to look like exotic car keys... hmmm. I'm just off the patent office (where no doubt I'll find I've been beaten to it!)

I hope some of you guys are not traceable from your profiles... I would not be posting pictures of my keys on here...

Its very easy to cut a key from a photograph, I have had quite a few done... there are a couple of guys on Ebay that offer the service!

It's not a Bentley key, it's a Skoda key. The keyring was given to me so I put it on my spare key fob.

I can't remember if the Continental GT keys are standard VAG but the Mulsanne ones aren't. Although they are obviously related if you put them side by side!

I read somewhere that the Bentley Continental GT key is the same as a Volvo key.


Probably not true.

It could be, I can't really remember

Is a VW Cali key (standard VW item only made a little different with a water tank key and a safe key!) worth posting? Nope!

The BMW one is great though - it has a completely removable "non battery" metal key section meaning I can take it surfing without killing the remote control! Total genius design by BMW.

Yeah Aston had volvo keys, that quite often wore away to reveal the volo badge underneath :/
