Ta! May as well treat myself to a new bonnet release cable....which finally snapped...note the high quality/carefully crafted temporary release system...
Thanks so much for your help! Yep damn rubber on key top finally must have worn through and the key dropped off somewhere. That's what happens when you get old...bits drop off!
I live in Ireland
I have a 1996 LR Defender County and I’ve lost the ignition key. How do I get a new one quickly? Do I need the key code and if so where do I find it? Obviously I have the VIN
