w00t, it started! i jumstarted it off my mums while holding the key forward and hammering the accelerator, eventually started! Think itt may have been a bit damp as the bonnet was open a lot yesterday! Im going to leave it running for a bit as my mum is going out and i wont have her car to start it again!! lol, cheers for all your help
