Cheers for replies, it's turning over fine with no battery light coming on.
I've been recovered to the local indi vw specialist, the recovery guy said to try starting it up, while he listened in over the back seat, he can't hear the fuel pump prime when the key is turned. He says its deffo the fuel pump that's gone, which is quite a common fault aparrently?
I'll post back when I have more news, looking like a day off for me today :-)
