Proton Jumbuck starting issues

I have a Proton Jumbuck that now has a statring problem. The key fob fell apart and after putting it back together it now won't start. If you turn key to the start position you just hear the fuel pump. Occasionally it tries to start but as soon as it goes to start it just cuts out. Was fine untill the fob fell apart.

Must have an immobiliser that has lost its coding. Unfortunately Protons are so rare that the usual people may not be able to help. If the below can't help then you'll have to go to a Proton dealer.

Timpsons in the High Street, side street or in a Shopping Mall.

No joy there, links to keys and locksmiths in this directory:

The first two on the list apparently give very good, very fast and verycheap service.
