Hi my sons 206 won’t start. Prob not battery as is turning over just engine wont ignite. He hadn’t used it for a while (learner) and didn’t turn it over through the recent cold snap. Any ideas? Could it be the spark plugs?

Could be any number of things.

Normal procedure is to check for spark and fuel at the injectors.

Don't discount the battery. Mine would start first time in warmer weather but completely refused when we had the -5 temperatures. Swapped the battery and all was well.

How old is the battery? There should be a date of manufacture stamped into it.

Will the car bump start?
