I dont understand why it wont start, but i was always under the impression that the alarm beeping is an indication that something isnt closed properly like a door or something?

Just incase you are wondering why i am suggesting that something may be open, is because mine kept on beeping on the odd occasion & it was down to my boot lid popping open after i had set the alarm, hence the beeping. Another thing i noticed on mine along time ago was the little black alarm sensor which sits in between the seats on the S1 had fallen of the velcro & dissapeared under the passenger seat. This also caused the thing to play up.
