Sounds like an immobiliser problem. *scratches chin*

 You could try reading the codes - press both accelerator and brake pedals in, then turn the ignition to position 2- it will flash out a code on the service light.

 For example, flash-flash-flash... flash-flash-flash-flash... would be 34.

The first point of call is do a diagnostic check. Follow link to the Paperclip Test or Pedal Test. Find the codes there and you will find your problems.
Cheers

Where abouts are you Jonny? Maybe someone is local to you and could guide you through it!
