Some sound advice there.
I always use Hugh's approach, when I - are anyone around me develops a car problem....What did you last do to it?
Nick's comment about contamination between the starter contacts, reminded me of the time I had a problem similar to yours. It turned out to be oil leaking onto the starter and finding its way between the points. That got a bit smoky when I pulled the starter cable. It was a simple job to take the starter switch assembly off and clean it.
Good luck Clive. Hope you find a simple solution.
