    An odd request...

    Does anyone have an old car key they don't need?

    Ok, a bit more explaining. I'm looking for a remote key fob with a flick out key. It's for my two year old, he loves keys. Especially my van key because it flips out when you press a button. By tries to start his trike with it

    My parents found a random bunch of house keys in the back of a drawer, but he isn't as impressed with them as the van keys.

    I just don't want to loose my van keys :\

    Thanks guys.

    I'm saddened to say it isn't only your little'un which is addicted to the flip keys - last time I had a hire car (Vauxhall Astra iirc) with a flip key that was the most interesting feature!

    I was driving a hire car last week (Fiat Punto) and also thought the same thing; well that and the atrocious turning circle for a "city car".

    OT: Sorry don't have any spare flip-out keys.

    Threw out the spare keys for my written off Accord when I moved house but they were old style anyway, ebay should be cheap for some

    I think that's the most interesting feature of any Vauxhall.
