What Newstead customers say
“My push-button smart key was lost and the dealer quote was ridiculous. Keymate came to work, programmed a replacement in the car park and it was a fraction of the price. Brilliant service.”
“Keys locked inside with the engine off in a work car park. They opened it quickly and carefully — no damage to the trim at all.”
“Got a second key cut and programmed before we ever needed it. Ten minutes, tested both, done. Much cheaper than scrambling in an emergency later.”
