Renault are asking top price so I wondered if anybody was out there who knows a cheaper deal?

Contact the previous owner/s of your Car, they might have a spare key or know where you can get a cheaper new key cut. Most cars have at least two possible three sets of keys from new. Make sure you trace the last owner on the V5 logbook, he or she might still have a key to your car?
Good Luck!!

i have recently kinda done the same thing! i snapped my key inside my barrel and didn't have a spare! after searching around i found out that the best thing to do is either buy a new set of barrels ( which will mean you getting two sets of keys so this cant happen again) or you will have to just go to a Renault garage and hope they can make a new one! depending on the age of your car it may have a immobiliser so this could be VERY expensive to replace! if not then it shouldnt be to much of a problem. good luck

Fraid not, you need a Renault dealer, you just need to cough up, failing that if you can get in the car you could just change the whole barrel, depends on age of car though..

you have to go to renault as your key has a transponder inside and it has to be programed into the cars ECU. i dont know of anyone else that can do it for you. i am a renault mechanic.
