I did the 'normal' checks, put in a new plug, & concluded that still no spark possibly equals duff spark generator.
It being too hot in the barn to delve further I put it the car & took it to our local BricoPro (ex Espace Emeraude) for them to sort out.
Following a phone call I picked it up today & was so shocked at the bill I forgot to ask the very busy service desk guy what the problem was. I'll ask the next time I'm there but it's working so at the moment who cares? For the princely sum of 16,75€ it's starting again.
Result !!!
