Losing your car keys is about as fun as a flat tyre in the middle of nowhere. First, check if you have a spare—if not, you’re looking at calling a locksmith or your dealership. Replacing keys for modern cars can be a wallet-buster, often ranging between $150 and $600 AUD depending on the complexity (transponder or smart keys cost more). If you’re buying used, places like Tradingpost and CarShowroom sometimes list vehicles with spare keys included—worth a quick peek. Always keep a spare somewhere safe because, trust me, the alternative is a nightmare.
