Spare Key - Cost effective solution

Hello
I have just purchased a Superb 55 plate 1.9TDi Classic 100ps.
I am very happy with it so far.

It only came with one key and I need a spare, I have read horror stories about purchasing from EBAY whats the most cost effective solution.

Cheers Sterlos

Re: Spare Key - Cost effective solution

I bought a key from Ebay (Poland I think) and coded it myself. Had to get the imobiser code from the dealers and get the blade cut. I already had vag-com to do the actual encoding. I'm not 100% on the individual costs but I think they were roughly

Key = £15
Blade cut = £5
Imobilser code = £15

Total = £35
Dealer price for above = £200+

So in other words, only way of getting a spare key is to fork out at the dealers??
