    Thats what I thought it would most likely be... It would make sense.

    Yep. It's from a cop car and from quite a while ago too. I had a mate in the Highway Patrol (seriously some of them have mates!) back in the early 80's and went out for a blast in the VK he was driving a few times. The keyring then was one of those rectangular plastic things with the window showing the small card beneath with vehicle details.

    I wouldn't be surprised if that was from the 50's or 60's.

    It's a cool keepsake anyway.

    The one on the left looks like HR Holden and the small round one is fairly generic, I've come across them in a lot of '80's cars including Holdens.

    The MIXO is as you can read, French, so as a guess I'm thinking could be Renault, Peugeot or maybe even Volvo. (You can throw it out then!!!)
