Thanks Trikey for an instant reason to the cause of the problem.
Tried a different battery and started easily. Now just got to take the other one back that is still under warranty,

I've been looking for one of these for a while. My old one was "borrowed" by a "friend" who never returned it! Now I know where to look! Cheers.

Arrived in the post last week and guess what happened when I went to start my car this morning? Nothing! Took three attempts before it started, then went fine. Looks like the wire brush thingy will get used once the wind drops a bit. No click so it will probably be the small lead to the starter or the inhibitor switch (auto). The battery leads and earths will get a good clean too.

Not even getting the "click" to the solenoid but will check that too whilst I'm in there.
