How much drama is it to get a new fob and key? I only have one but could do with 2? Any help would be great!!

can still get them from a ex rover dealer or ocasionaly from ebay but make sure if you buy one second hand you get the barcode for the fob and any ex rover dealer can just code it for you no problem

well the other night i had a competition with my friend and his transit van and me in my (bmw) mini and i piped him at 29 yards away but with my old rover coupe i had to be about 2-5 feet away to lock or unlock

I have noticed the same thing with my ZS.

It does work, I tried it last night with the 800. I looked special walking down the car park with fob at me head but the car unlock from over 60ft away!!!
I will admit there is no need for it ti work that far away but I thought I would try it.
