Faulty car immobiliser??

Well I can't afford anything like that, it could be the battery I suppose, but radio and lights come on, would they if it was a battery issue?

They would depend on how much juice is in the battery.

Does the flashing immobiliser LED (on the dash) behave differently if it doesn't start?

The red light flashes before I put key in, goes off when I take the steering lock off and try to start car, the little light with car with lock through is on, I sound really useless don't I lol

Your key has lost its programming, the light with the car and lock is connected to the immobiliser. You need someone to reprogram your key.

I hope she's got security pass for car as Vauxhall charge £25 for code and she will also need a virgin immbolizer chip For Vauxhall it's usually a id46 chip
