Some Ford MD might stilll be able to help you but MOST auto locksmiths shoould be able to help.
I know one or two members now have the Ford WDS system which allows reprogramming of keys and they might be able to help.
I am sure others will be along to help soon.

Same here - when I bought my Scorpio almost 4 years ago now it came with only 1 black key. I bought a blank red key and a blank black key from ebay thinking it would be easy to get them cut and programmed but was told it is something a FMD has to do....and so the blank keys remain uncut. The local places where you can get keys cut around here don't seem to have the kit to programme the keys.
Would be great to have a full set of keys.

Kev.
You will be able to find a lock place somewhere down there to clone you a spare key,but I wouldn't think they could make you a master key.

Thanks all for your input. I have emailed Timpsons to see if they can do it, and how much. A friends brother works for Dag motors here in Worthing. He is also going to find out about a replacement key, but told it may be expensive. C'mon Timpsons.

Hi Kev, yes this key can be duplicated at Worthing; the price would start at £35.00 but can go up to around £75.00 depending on the chip (transponder) in your key.
Regards
Craig.

Does this mean a new red key can be cloned from an existing black key ?

A cloned key is just a copy of the existing key.
I just have the black key that was with the car & a cloned one, I didn't bother getting a master.
