Doesn't sound too outrageous to be honest, compared to the prices of keys for other cars.
Got any relevant insurance cover?  A decent remote key for my antique Ford Focus is around £80 from a reputable aftermarket supplier (more from Ford), plus programming which I happen to be able to do myself.

^ what he said ^
£220 is a bargain compared to some others which can be £400-500 Most don't, but some insurers do offer key cover, but probably not worth harming any NCD for £220.
