Car won't start

[wozza182]

bought a 182 today. Drove it back from Gatwick to West London and it was faultless.

I popped indoors and then went back out again in it. It started fine and then it cut out about 20 ft down the road.

The car won't start now, it won't even turn over. The car won't lock, none of the lights or the radio work now either.

By coincidence an AA van pulled into my road and I flagged him down.
He checked the battery and said that it was holding its charge.

Any ideas what it could be?
I've texted the previous owner for some clues, but he hasn't got back to me yet.

Thanks.

Don't worry. The mechanic just checked it out and it was corroded connectors on the battery.
All fine now.

Mods please close/delete.
