If it's flashing than it sounds like an immobiliser problem.

Could be a number of things. You can replace sensors and pick ups all day long but never solve it. The best bet is to check here for the paper clip test http://www.topbuzz1.carenthusiasts.co.uk/info/fault_codes/fault_codes.htm

Or, you could take it to Vaux and get ripped off.
