Cage trouble

[GrahamB]

This happened to a family member last year. I was able to remove the ignition barrel assembly, identify the worn pins, remove them & put it all back together. I think a combination of worn pins internally & worn key were enough to stop it all from doing the business. I would be tempted to phone a few local breakers before ditching the car myself... .    unless you're looking for an excuse to ditch it that is?
