This is a common failure on this model with the easyshift automated manual gearbox.Could be a fault with the clutch actuator mechanism or the gearshift motor.The system is not selecting the neutral position,so will not allow the engine to start.Could be expensive.

yes, what he said, even Vauxhall garages are scared of these. Bet you could fix it with an op-com.
