When I tried to get in the 325 a month ago the electrics were totally dead.

Nothings been left on to flatten the battery, but Ive charged it overnight just in case, but still no joy. I've separated the C101 plug to have a look, but there's no signs of anything wrong with it.

Has anyone any advice please?

Thanks

Try to crank it at the diagnostic socket (see wiki). This eliminates all of the car body and just uses the engine loom
If it won't crank, either the battery is flat, the large cables have a poor connection, or the red wire bolted to the battery + terminal isn't making good connection.
