If the key is a fat topped one then any locksmith can cut one that will open the door BUT you will need the dealer to special order one to work with the immobiliser - I believe they are £100 plus - yes unfortunately they are chipped and severely restricted in supply. 
Not done it myself - try giving a dealer the details etc. and asking for a price to check it out. Expect the worst.

stealer price for key is £106+ vat
I tried loads of key places but they told me the Freelander is one if the only ones their machine struggles to read!
I found one place though-The Heel bar in Fakenham, Norfolk, his new machine managed to read my key ok (2003 Freelander) so I'm going back next week when the blank arrives...paying £60
keep trying key cutters/show repair places and you might get lucky,
if not the take your V5 and VIN number to steamers so they can order you a replacement direct from Germany :9)
