pulled up the other day no problem, went to switch my engine back on and it wouldnt turn over, everything else was fine and on.

Battery ok, so last resort i bumped it and it started, switched it off and started by the key ok straight away.

same thing happened again a couple of days later....

Loose connection on starter motor is my guess, or a bad earth.

I had that on my old car, turned out to be the started motor power connector was loose.

Mine did it too.
It was down to a very common clio problem here in denmark.
The little wire on the starter corrodes. Give it a nice clean, im sure it will work.

Starter motor is down the back of the block, Close to the downpipe.
