My car has no spare key

Hi, I have just purchased a 2006 Honda Jazz from a friend. It has come with only one key and no "key number plate". Is it possible for me to get a spare key made? If so, where would you recommend?"

I suppose a Honda garage could do it, but I would like to avoid main dealer prices if possible!

Try a branch of 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 very cheap service.
