I have to say it sounds concerning regarding the 2nd key, can you not go and collect it, I wouldn't trust them, and putting a car key in the post, well that will get lost I would think, or it will not turn up!

I would keep the car out of sight or at a mate's place, or in a garage, until you get the 2nd key in your hands. Did you get a discount with the HF problem with the car?

ok no im abit worried.i phoned the garage where i picked it up from asking for the other key.they said they didnt have it and started getting aggressive on the phone

basically they told me i had no right to phone the previous owner...

the guy traded it to a garage who then apparently traded it to the garage i had it off technically making me the 4th owner even though its not been signed on the v5 so im the second owner.im really worried and would like to get my key.im wondering is it worth driving 144 mile or getting someone to do it for me.

TBH they are not the best quality ones out there, and I definitely would not use one on my own car. I would recommend BGA or Payen.

Alright mate, cant believe you went through a big dilema to get a ZS or Coupe how come you didnt get a Coupe in the end?

And your key problem really doesnt sound promising mate.

ZS Phil has a spectacular aura aboutZS Phil has a spectacular aura about
looks like a nice car but as others have said I would be concerned about the key. If the HG is in its very early stages and your handy with the spanners I think it was well worth a grand. A friend of mine just paid the same money for one with 144 thousand miles on a 120.
