am I right in thinking that this has been discussed at few times before? button starts etc.

invalidated insurance springs to mind, unless declared it no longer has an operating factory fitted anti theft device. it will add more than a replacement key to the insurance premium.

considering our cars are getting on, and possibly have worn/failed steering locks and worn ignition barrels, I can't see doing this as a wise move. used to start an old car of mine with a penny.

but with some car values being less than the cost of the official replacement key why worry. then again, key insurance only adds 10 pounds per year to my insurance. hmmm
