i10 to Santa Fe — Smart Key SpecialistsHyundai Car Key
Specialist
i10 city runabouts to Santa Fe family wagons — Hyundai key systems are modern and well-engineered. We programme smart keys, transponders, and remotes for all of them.
"I was parked at Hornsea Freeport doing some outlet shopping. Bought a new pair of trainers, threw the box in the boot of my i30, and somehow the old pair of shoes — which I'd put the car key inside of (don't ask me why, it made sense at the time) — went into the charity shoe donation bin outside the sports shop. I only realised when I was halfway home and went to change the radio station. Turned around, drove back, explained the situation to the Freeport security guard who looked at me like I was completely mad. Then I realised I'd locked the car again — with the spare key inside the shoe, inside the donation bin, which was padlocked. Ian came out, opened the car, programmed a new key, and didn't laugh until I'd paid him. Fair enough. The charity got a pair of Adidas with a Hyundai key fob inside. Hope they enjoyed them."
