Can anyone help me please

The Williams won't start. The engine is turning over but just won't fire up. It sounds as though iot's about to but just won't make that final leap into life. Any suggestions? I'm hopeless with cars!

Is this from cold?

Yes. Stone cold. Haven't used the car all week. The battery is fine.

All sorted.

When I said the battery was fine I should have instantly realised that I was talking crap. The battery was far from fine and wasn't charged enough to start the engine. A jump of the missus' car has got it back to life.

Just taken it for a blast on the winding Essex lanes.

Cheers guys!
