You'll be lucky to find one to fit. they'll have to be butchered off. Most tyre fitters will do it for you they're used to lost locking nut keys. good luck

If you'd made a note of the key number, then that might help as you'll then be able to get an exact match.

Other than that I've heard Rover dealers (assuming their Rover type locking locking wheel nuts) used to keep all the keys for such events.

But the keys are like house keys and they all have different combinations, or shapes.

So it's very unlikely someone close will have one that is compatible with yours?

What would be the point if they were? Everyone would have the same key and be able to pinch everyone else's wheels then.

A bit like if every key opened every car door.
