the only way lozz is a slightly smaller socket and a lump hammer . no other key will fit.
i took my old vectra to the garage . they charged me £5 per wheel. it took them all of 15 minutes to get all 4 off

There are several different pug locking nuts , you need to know which one
then maybe someone will have a spare .

Cheers all,
im going to take the car to the main agents and see what they sugest about the locking key,
itried getting one off today but its going to damage the wheels with a lump hammer and socket method,
so looks like getting a key is best option but main agents looks like the only option,
