I have just purchased myself a 1.2 8v corsa K reg. At is is a known runner but at the moment when you turn the key the ignition lights all come on etc and the lights and eveything work but there is no sign of a starter motor even trying to start. Anyone any ideas?

I would be checking there was voltage at the starter and if so, swap it for one which works. They do jam.
