Ok, so i picked up my type v last week, all was perfect until this morning, i drove all day yesterday, car ran like a dream, go out to my car a little while ago and it will not start? It does turn over though
thanks in advance
 
Can you give more details, what is happening when you turn the key, are you getting any clicks, what sort of noise etc?

I would start off with the battery, make sure you didnt leave any lights on that drained the battery.
 
Ok so it is working now, but i didnt actually do anything, but when it wouldnt start, there were no clicks, tge engine was turning over as if it was going to start it was just not firing up, as if no fuel suplly or no spark?
 
Jon_g could be right however lets not focus on that and focus on resolving the issue.

First and foremost any warranty with the sale?

Ideally when it fails to start you need to check if there is spark/fuel.

Could a be a perished rota cap which delivers the spark to the leads or could be immobilizer related even

Hows the car reacting now?
 
Sounds weird OP but are either of the footwells wet?
 
Sorry taken so long to reply guys, much appreciation for the help and advice, strange thing is it started working again later that day and it has worked perfectly well ever since
