Default Anyone know about having replacement keys supplied and programmed?

Ok, bit of a long story here but in a nutshell, I hired a vehicle and lost the key for it!

So, totally my fault and therefore I have to pay for a replacement key. However, Fiat want £325 to supply and reprogramme a key which seems a lot to me!

It's a 2007 fiat ducato van with a 3 button flip key. Anyone know the best way to get this done cheaper? Vehicle is in the Devon area.

cheers

I've had programmed keys done by mobile companies and they're a damn sight cheaper than the main dealer, and just as good. Mine have usually been Fords, but I'm sure it won't be as much as you've been quoted by Fiat.
