It's just a stab in the dark, if an automatic, will it let you turn to Accessories(pushing down on start button)? if so put it in neutral and see if it'll start then.
You didn't give us much info. Mileage? Transmission? Does it have a telescopic steering column? Have you checked battery cables?

Sorry for the lack of info. 103000 miles manual transmission. No telescopic steering wheel.

Are you getting a message on the dash, such as ‘service column lock’?
