hi guys stange i bought this car about 4 weeks ago i thought id better check the break bads on the front the problem is the locking wheel nut does not fit the locks on the wheel its all genuine ford what do i do know i am screwd if i need to change a tyre please do i need to visit ford dealers or and if so how much do the things cost
 
The Ford locking nuts can be very similar, and i regularly have the problem of losing my locking nut bolt and having the same problem as you are having.
A dedicated tyre fitting garage can whip the locking nuts in 10 minutes for £20.
You can also get a locking nut removal set for about £30.
After my third set of locking nuts, i have removed all my locking nuts.
I would not go to the Ford Dealer, they would be expensive.
 
I had a garage chew up my locking key, so went to Platts of marlow, who worked out which key I needed, and orderd a new one from Germany. Cost me £25 all in.
