According to this site

Buying a used car from a dealer


This warranty only applies if the car you are buying:

• is less than ten years old; and
• has done less than 160,000 kilometres.

thanks marmoset i'll have a look and see what i can do, i cant even get it to an auto elec at the moment, and alpick i'm pretty sure its not the battery it looks just about brand new still has the price sticker on it, and disco97 i called the car yard on saturday when it first happened and spoke to the owner and got a big fat **** you from him, he told me its not his problem, and after i abused him a bit he told me to **** off and i hung up on him, he then called back and proceeded to abuse my wife. he is lucky i live 4 hours away or i might have paid him a visit.

Lucar connecter on energiser (small) wire to starter solenoid, Check cleanliness of contact and security (This stuffed me around for weeks! Chasing all kinds of complex isssues, turned out to insufficient tension in the connecter, crimped it tighter and: Voila!)
Power supply to starter as above
As stated above, Remove starter and check solenoid contacts, cheap and easy to replace, mine were shockers!

THEN start checking earths, XYZ switch (if Auto)

Hope that helps.
