All you know is the battery lights on? and presumably the car wont turn over? So based on that information, you could simply have a flat battery.. :D

Have a nice holiday and relax.. :)

Hi Stephen,
I hope Nick has waved his magic wand over your car and made it better at little cost.

Don't let it spoil your holiday enjoyment ;)

If you or anyone does a Oil change always cover the alternator,
common fault for blowing them.

I still love this marque and I will still be around, preferred selling to breaking, as a great runner and performer"
