Got my first T25, only have 1 key. Went to get another key cut and was told they do not have any blanks of this style anymore.
Anybody know where you can get a blank from

Ebay or VW. Some key cutters have them, tho I don't think they're supposed to.

Any chance of a phone number for Timpsons as I am in Bedfordshire, was thinking I could purchase a blank key from them.

Did you take them back?
I got one done at a local random accessory place near where I used to live in Didsbury. Worked first time.
Maybe it was an halfords-esque timpsons employee you got kathy?

Got mine done at the local key-cutting place, cost all of five Euro.
It's a generic, non-VW blank though ...works just fine.
