Default Car won't start...

Right dudes,

my s2 RS has been on charge all night.

Went to go and start it this morning and when i turn the key all i get is a click and thats it.

Tried starting with a booster pack but nothing... is it the starter motor or something else?

thanks,

Shep

starter motor - definite. Try sticking it in gear, let off handbrake and rock it a good few times, or better hit it with a hammer a few times to release it.
If that dont do it, just get a new one and get the heat shield for it too.
