Sounds like to me the alarm.and the immobiliser has put a stop to it starting.

if when you bought it you got both keys, then try and see if it will start with the other key. The immobiliser works with a chip thats in the key fob, maybe the one in your key is playing up. Hope that makes sense GGJ

This happened on a new 307 when it was delivered to a company my nephew works at. Called out the AA man who disconnected the battery for a few minutes, then reconnected it. Wait a couple of minutes, and hey presto it started. Also read elsewhere that you remove the shunt fuse in the passenger compartment fuse box while the key is NOT in the ignition.
