About this deal
I cleaned both surfaces as best I could, marked the key and the wheel to note the position in which the key engaged, mixed up some araldite and smeared it liberally around the inside of the key. I don't really fancy the "loosening the other bolts and then going for a drive" method to loosen the locking bolt either. Same top spec, all-inclusive capability, but is not supplied with the carry case, instead it comes in a removable LDP foam insert, great for storing in a tool chest or any other suitable storage space.
The tyre garage messed up my locking wheel nut socket and then looked at me like I was going to magic the answer out of the air!

The damaged bolt and key are now permanently attached to one another but as they were going in the bin anyway thats no problem and no spanners were harmed in the process. the second type from about 2001 - 2005 have a hardened spinning ring around the outside but otherwise one piece so the cone is part of the bolt . The lad hammered "blade 3" on to the bolt, then had to put his full weight on to end of a 4' breaker bar to loosen it off. If anybody could suggest any other easy, and cheap, method to remove this bolt, I'd be very grateful.
