Locked out, lost keys

[Classic Nut]

Bought a 1985 Carlton estate and within 15 minutes had locked car up, then lost keys. Can’t get key cut as need key number and it’s not written anywhere. Vauxhall can supply a key/keys but need key number.

can get auto electrician to re-key it, but it’s not cheap.

Any help greatly appreciated

auto-locksmith would be your best bet and may be able to cut keys for it

Sorry to hear that! A professional locksmith can often help in situations like this by decoding the lock or creating a key without needing the original key number. It’s usually more affordable than re-keying through an auto electrician. Look for an experienced auto locksmith who works with older vehicles—they may even offer mobile service to come to you. It’s worth a call before going the expensive route.
