Nearly every morning now, open the car as normal, put key into ignition all the dash lights up and fuel pump kicks in etc. Soon as the key is turned nothing happens, no clicks or anything. Sometimes have to repeat this several times before it will fire up. Any ideas what it could be? Starter, ignition switch?
I aint tried the hammer route on the starter yet but I will today.

There is no noise when the key is turned. Seems like a dead spot on the starter.

I had that every now and again with mine. Push the car a couple inches and see if it will turnover then. I got another starter motor incase that was it but never got around to trying it out before getting the new box setup. If that is the cause on yours, you can have this other 5spd starter cheap as its surplus to me now.

Immobiliser will still usually allow the engine to turn over but not fire. The standard one on my classic does that anyway.

starter motor is whats causing, the solenoid is breaking down, that's why its starting fine sometimes and completely dead at other times
