There are plenty of Mini ones available on eBay for about a fiver. Remember to keep the transponder chip from the old key, and just get the blank key blade cut (an indy key cutter is best as Timpsons refused to do mine).

Flip keys are available on the bay, search for mini flip key.

They are not expensive (about £5 to £8) and you just swop your circuit board and transponder over from your old key so no programming needed.

You need to get the blade cut, unfortunately many locksmiths won't do them but some independents will.

A member on here sells the little Rover/MG winged emblems for the unlock button to finish it off.

I have one, and with a little fettling am generally pleased with it.

Hi,
there are also small stick on 'MG' dots if you want to jazz up the fob. Come from China but sent very fast. Cheers, Alex.
