In Australia, Mister Minit car key prices typically start around $120–$200 for a basic non‑remote transponder copy, jump to about $220–$450 for flip/remote keys, and hit $300–$600+ for proximity “smart” keys.
The exact damage depends on your make, immobiliser type and whether programming needs OBD access or security codes.
Budget extra for tricky Euro models, and note that some late‑model smart keys are still dealer‑only territory.
Shell replacements and button repairs are far cheaper, while a lost‑all‑keys recovery is dearer than cutting a simple spare.
Best move: ring your local kiosk with your VIN and rego for a firm quote and turnaround before you part with the folding stuff.
