Take off the alarm and imobliser and then try. Could be the imobliser.

Might even be the starter motor.

when u checked for a spark, did u hold the spark plug agaist the block, or a good earth? if u did and its still not working, put a test light accross ur ignition coil, see if thats gettin power. thats the only things i can really sugest with out seeing the car.
