I know its not for Estorils, but know its definitely for TVR.

Thanks

Not for OZ's as I've got an original key (bit not the bolts). Looks like the 2 straight line one common on estorils but can't really tell from the pic. We've got one of these too (again no bolts to use it on). Need a star one if anyones got a spare.

As FFG says if it's two inline then it's an Estoril type cover. I've changed mine to different ones that are Leven versions.

Not them same on all Estorils however as mine is considerably different from that from the factory.

But it sounds like the more frequently seen version.

OK, many thanks for all replies. My Estorils use the star type of key and was unaware there were other types.

Car originally had 5 spoke Chimera wheels and thought that the key could possibly be from those or from an S3 owned years ago.

Cannot think how I acquired them.

HI GM, yes still struggling on. Re-bushed the OS side of the front suspension and have tried cold galvanise paint on the wishbones for a change not over enamoured with Smoothrite. Changed all ball joints as well for good measure
