Yes, a lot, but not cause I want to. Occasionally, I'll go into the world music section an pick out an album based on the instrumental configuration and/or whatever the album says on the packaging. Also, as a jazz listener, the very first thing I look for is the musicians on the album, and the date of recording. With tht info, I can usually have a good guess at what the music sounds like. Even after I listening to some albums for years, I don't even know the names of the songs. I just put the CD in and listen to it, without any lyrics, I don't know the names of the songs and I hardly ever look. BQ: Star Trek the Next Generation. - BQ: Cedar rope inscense. BQ: Andrew Cyrille's Good To Go (I just bought that one without hearing a note of it. Cyrille on drums and James Newton on flute, that's enough to get me curious.)

Depending on the model year of your car,it may have needed a master key.Later models had recorded sucurity details.Sounds like you've got the earlier type.If the keys need replacing the master key is required for coding purposes.Good independent vehicle locksmiths do now have a way around this problem and can code new keys without the master key and without replacing the ECU.I don't know where in the world you are,but if by chance you are anywhere near kent there is a company called SLS Locksmiths that I know can do this for you.

I'm sorry to tell you that you will need the brown master key cause if you want to cut another key to keep it spare you will need it and you can't cut one with the blue one. The Fiat dealer will surely tell you that the brown key is more important than the car itself cause combines its code with the ECU code. So let me give you an advise, go back from where you bought it and emphasize with him/her that you will need the brown one at all costs because without it you bought half a car, I'm afraid.
Sorry.

u should be able to use the codes on the cards u got with it to order a new key, should not be much more than about £5.a main dealer should be able to access all the info needed from youre vim code, in the bonnett. so if its not a ringer u should be fine. also try contacting the person u baught it from, they might still have it.
