Replacing a keyfob for a C-MAX?

I have a Ford C-Max (12 reg) purchased virtually new in October last year which is still under its 2 year warranty.

I have lost one of the remote keys and need to get a replacement. The key fob has a manual key inside and my local Ford Dealership tell me that it will cost £210 to replace. I know you have mentioned that you can get replacement fobs elsewhere at a better price but will they come with the internal manual key?

But, if I buy a replacement key from one of these firms would this affect my Ford Warranty?

Can you give me a few names of suitable firms as well.

Try a branch of Timpsons in the High Street, side street or in a Shopping Mall.

No joy there, links to keys and locksmiths in
this directory:

The first two on the list apparently give very good, very fast and very cheap service.
