My 'new to me' second hand volvo V70 came with one set of keys.

The dealer quoted GBP 80 for a new key, GBP 37 to 'chip' it. Now GBP 120 seems a lot for a new set of keys, until I discovered the central lock keyfob is an extra GBP 40 plus another GBP37 to program it.

The guys at the parts counter reckoned a complete set of keys would be about GBP 250, so I guess there's VAT on top!
