Turns out something was wrong with the battery so just bought a fresh one as the old one was getting on a bit.

It was nothing to do with the immobiliser at all as the brakes had just seized up a little from residue when I washed it :lol:

Gotta lol a little, sorry

All fuses are intact and spare key doesn't do any difference. Having a mate check it out later on and he knows what he's doing :lol:

It turns over, I did have very little fuel in it so could it be failing to start from a lack of fuel?

There's no EML light flashing so I guess that rules the immobiliser out, just find it weird that the car doesn't move when the handbrake is off and it's out of gear

Car wouldn't fire up today, tried jump starting it and no success.

It's a Corsa B 1.4 8v.
