The new Land Rover Defender (L663) carries the most advanced security architecture Land Rover has ever fitted, which makes it one of the hardest vehicles in the country to get a key cut for outside of a main dealership. AJ Auto is the trusted alternative. We cover the full modern Defender lineup including the 90, 110 and 130 across every model year from 2020 to 2026, with proper JLR dealer level software and the correct virgin key stock for the platform. Our technicians come to your home, office or off road location anywhere in the UK and have you back behind the wheel the same day in almost every case, without ever needing to remove or replace a single lock or security module.
Whether you want an extra spare for an upcoming expedition or you have a full all keys lost situation after a misplaced fob, we handle the lot on site. Our software performs a secure digital handshake with the Defender’s internal modules, programmes a fresh smart remote and pairs it cleanly with the immobiliser. The remotes we supply support proximity sensing, keyless go and the Defender’s full alarm functionality, and every job is finished in front of you with a working key in your hand before we leave.
For all keys lost we skip the part nobody wants to pay for, which is recovery. There is no truck, no tow yard, no dealership waiting list. We arrive with everything in the van, plug in, wipe the old key data, programme the new hardware and confirm the engine starts and locks cycle properly. Most attendances are completed in around an hour. Parts and programming are backed by a 12 month warranty, and the price is fixed and confirmed before we leave the workshop so there are no surprises on your driveway.
Does a Defender 90 use the same key as a 110 or 130?
Yes, every L663 body length shares the same fob. A key from a Defender 90 will pair into a 110 or a 130, and vice versa, regardless of trim or engine.
Will a new key still work properly with off road kit fitted to my Defender?
Yes. Roof tents, expedition racks and accessory wiring do not affect the security side, and our diagnostic kit talks to the body control modules in exactly the same way regardless of how the car is specced.
Can you handle the Defender V8 Carpathian and the Octa as well as the standard P300 or D250?
Yes. The V8 Carpathian, the Octa and the standard cars all use the same key system, so the procedure and the pricing are the same.
My Defender is fitted as a Hard Top commercial, are commercial keys different?
No, the Hard Top uses the same fob as the equivalent passenger Defender. The front seat layout and rear glass aside, the security side is identical.
Can you attend a Defender that is parked off road, on a farm or at a remote site?
Yes, we attend anywhere in the UK including farms, country estates, building sites and rural addresses. As long as the car is reachable by road we can complete the job in front of you.
If you own more than one car in the household or you are researching for a friend, we also handle Land Rover Discovery 5, Range Rover L460, Land Rover Discovery 4 and the rest of the lineup.
