she went to start it but it wouldnt fire up alto it turns over
i cannot find the fuel cut off switch it is not in the kick pannels on either side

I don't think the diesels have a cut off switch. Have you confirmed that is isn't getting fuel?

To be honest your stabbing in the dark really and there really isn't a lot of point trying to get an internet diagnosis for it. Best get someone to have a look at it!

Was it low on diesel before she filled up?

Is it still on the forecourt or have you moved it?

May be the immobiliser playing up, lock it with the remote, stay away for at least half an hour, then try opening and starting it.
