Most key cutters can cut you a new one but they may not have the blank to hand. MG blanks can be bought from places like eBay. My local keycutter did not want to risk using my blank initially so cut one on a similar blank first to try it. That worked fine so I ended up with two extra keys.

If you have the original paper work with the car, you may have the key code which allows them to cut a new key without a key to cut from.

When buying a blank make sure it is for a MGF/TF or MG Maestro or Montego, the black for the ZR and ZS is different.
