    Could be the starter motor, battery lead to the starter, bad earth, starter relay, battery dying under load. Start by checking the voltage on the battery then turn the key and see if it drops. If it does not drop check the power at the starter motor to see if it's getting there when turning the key. See how that goes to start.
    Cheers, David.

    Also check that the battery in your key fob is not flat. If it is flat, the Immobiliser will show a key shaped light on your dash when you turn the key and stop the starter kicking in.

    You might also like to try the Ignition fuse, just on the right side of the under side of the dash... Number 4 fuse i think

    Is it completely dead when you try and start it or is there clicking.

    Do you know whether you have the immobiliser bypassed on your car as well?
    Our Land Rover does not leak oil! it just marks its territory.......
