Picked up the replacement alloy key today, attempted to release them bl00dy alloy nuts, drivers one put up a fight, but gave in. Passenger side, no luck

Cheers though TB, he knows i am weak

Anywho popped it down ATS to see what they could do, young twerp behind the counter said "nothing we can do mate, take it to Vauxhall and get a new key" but i pointed out the new key did bugger all....
Thats odd mate, he said, key should do it! Never seen that before

:-?
So instead went down to another tyre place in town (independent), kind gent there said put the nose in and i'll see if a gun will get it off, but not holding my breath.
I had a good feeling as i popped the car in, he stocked mainly Falkin Tyres! He could not recommend them enough, he said he's having trouble sourcing them, anyway he put the gun on, 2 seconds and it was off!

There was no charge either

Top marks for my new favorite garage

Right time for new pads and fluid....
