Just done some more research. Interesting...!

I was away on holidays for 3 weeks and my sister was to drop across and start the car, give it a run etc. She was doing this but about 2 weeks ago, she came across and the car wouldn't start. She did a bit of her own research, went out and bought jump leads and started the car. It started first time about 10 days ago, but the same problem occurred about a week ago and she had to jump start it again. As the S was only in my possesion for about 3 days beforehand, she was worried that she had caused the problem and was hoping it would go away! Poor thing was seriously upset for the last week apparently!!!

Sounds like the battery definitely needs replacing if it's not working after 3 days of inactivity!

If you have a JDM, you need a Halfords HB054 and the Honda one won't fit.
