Default 480 Locking Nut Key

Hi

I was wondering if anyone can identify the key needed for this....or has one I could borrow! The wheels were refurbished in 2017 by a garage who bought the car and did a few bit to it then sold it on to another classic trader. A few bits and bobs disappeared between those sales.... I cannot locate the locking nut key. I know I can get them off by other means but it would be nice to not have to do that!
I am in Lincolnshire but can travel/pay to borrow one for a few days via mail.

Or...if you're super 400...can you give me an identifier/part number for this key? Nobody I've tried so far (480 Europe) has seen it before.

Many thanks

Hi Edie,

Don't recognise these either.

My 480 had the same issue. Locking wheel nuts fitted but no key.

Most tyre shops will have a tool to remove, mine did it for £25. I refitted McGard 27170 locking wheels bolts. Only £15 on ebay.

Hope this is useful.
