Has this only just happened. Any prior signs of faults apparent eg: EML light flashing, display lights acting strange (dimming/pulsating) :question

Right, just to clarify. Engine has been starting erratically. idles erratic (when running) but now it won`t turn over at all or it won`t start. Which option :question  Suggest doing the paperclip test for fault codes http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1189022687

Can you get someone to turn ignition while you see if you can hear the starter motor spinning. Starter could be jammed and not throwing "dog" onto flywheel :-/
If that`s a possibility you can try the old trick of tapping the starter with a mallet/hammer

As stated previously. Paperclip it using my link or Wellung`s link.
Does sound like a faulty starter or an intermittent earthing fault
