that was my first port of call. in the UK parts are cheaper - so I probably won't even call a local agent. THoughts?

A replacement key for your Discovery 3 is ?172.37 including VAT (which we have to charge). It would take 2 working days to order, and would require full payment in advance. Also, I would need to see copies of your Registration Document (or whatever is the Australian equivalent) and driving licence, so that we have 2 documents with the same name and address that tie you to the vehicle. Due to the logistics, if you would like to e-mail me copies of these documents, that would be acceptable.

Many thanks for your enquiry. If I can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.

What dealer did you go through. Just paid 50k for a disco4 and as I was going to car I realized wtf only one key. I have 3 keys with my patrol. Dealer was trying to get me to pay 570 for key.

Thanks.

Just rung above and was quoted ?234.55 than have to program here. Must be a massive markup on these things.

You have to be local though as you need to take the car in (Melbourne). I just ordered mine for $363.50 odd...I'm happy with that.

Good luck.
