Ford Locking Wheelnut Problem
I snapped the one on my old black mondy. To be fair, it's my fault it snapped, I over tightened the locking nut putting it on, and it snapped when i was trying to loosen it 
Don't know if you can get replacements. Push comes to shove, try hammering a socket over the nuts, see if you can get them off, then buy a new set

i would drop in to local scrap yad and they may have a stash to try, i used to keep them if i scrapped a car and the nuts were either crappy or any were misssing, i have alot of them like yours but if you dont live in norfolk thats no good

My key has a code on the side. Is it a case of matching the code?

I had this exact problem, ordered a new key which took ages to arrive, and then broke that fucker too 
Ended up having the car in the garage for 2 days for them to remove the lockers. Problem with modern fords is there is no space between the nut and the bolt hole for you to be ble hammer a socket or a universal removal tool on to the nut.

Go to http://www.dynomec.co.uk/indexEnglish.html they will remove all for around Ł50 only takes half hour.
I charge the same to remove but they are nearer for you to go direct.

Can you not take the broken 'shape' out of the nut and get that welded to a standard nut just to try and help you in the interim? I would deffo have a go - especially if it could be tigged as this would be neater and not so proud?
