Need a new Key

John,

I recently purchased a Volvo S80 T6 03 plate but it only came with one key. I approached a local store and Timpsons but neither could do it. My local (Nottingham) Volvo Dealership are asking £215.94 which I find staggering and beyond my budget. The key is one piece with buttons for lock, unlock, the boot, lights and alarm.

Any advice?
